Bruxism (The Posh Term For Grinding And Clenching Teeth) is really common and normally it is down to stress however as your 2 year old child is young it will problably relate to hyperactivity and in a matter of time the grinding and clenching during the night will stop. I used to grinde and clench my teeth all the time in my sleep and only recently stopped. Hope this helped x
