Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Grinding Teeth

DS has 3 teeth (2 bottom, 1 top) and all of a sudden he's started to grind them together! I'm sure it's because they are new and it feels different, but I don't want him to get into the habit of it. Anyone else dealing with this?  Or advice to get him to stop?

  • Thanks for asking this my son has 2 top 2 bottom teeth and is doing the same thing. I worry it will damage his teeth but no idea what to do.

  • DD did this for awhile too but has since stopped.  She's up to 4 teeth on top and 2 on bottom. I really think it's just because it feels different and it's something new.

  • Graham started doing this a couple of weeks ago. He has 2 on top and 3 on bottom. At first it freaked me out, and I thought it would mess up his teeth or jaw or something. But he has since stopped. He'll do it periodically, but definitely not as much as he used to. I think it's just part of them discovering their teeth, and making new sensations.
