Caleb has a habit of grinding his teeth when he is asleep and has done it for over year now and just recently been to the dentist and they are fine.. If your worried book an appointment at your local primary school dentist, its free and you should enrol them at 6mnths or as soon as they get teeth... ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Han grinds her teeth when she is teething but stops when she isn't. It drives me nuts!
I think if he only does it for a short time (a couple of weeks) then his teeth should be fine. They are baby teeth too, which fall out anyway. Just hope it isn't the beginning of a grinding habit

You can just get a mouthguard to put in at night if you are a tooth grinder. (much cheaper than getting a special one made at the dentist)
