output: hello hope you are safe thank you for the elaborate history I appreciate your concern regarding your child I would like to first tell you that grinding is a common phenomenal in children till years most children outgrow it by years however at this age if he is grinding you can give him plenty of water positive feedback helps and for more discussion regarding reward and positive feedback you can consult me on phone as it is difficult to explain those things verbally as for albendazole you can give 400 my once stat dose only repeat at months interval regards
