Grinding his teeth!

Hi ladies. My almost 12 month ds has a really bad habit of grinding his teeth! He started doing this as soon as he got his 2 top teeth and it is driving me nuts!! He doesn't seem to be stressed out or anything. It seems more like he discovered something new and just went with it. I really figured the novelty would have worn off by now, but he is still going strong with this bad habit and I am really worried about his teeth! Has anyone else experienced this? Are there any tips to get him to stop? Thanks.

I don't have any tips but would love soma as well. My son does it too. It drives me crazy. I tell not to do it but other then that there doesn't seem to be much more I can do.

My dd has started doing this also. I don't have any tips but I alway offer her something to bite on like a teether or teething biscuit. It seems to help for the moment.

My daughter does this too! I guess it's pretty common. I think you're right and it is just a new thing... She was doing it all the time when her top teeth first came in, and now she only does it once in a while. Thankfully because that sound drives me crazy!!!
