teeth grinding

[firstimemom]

:unsure: Tristyn, my 13 month old daughter has started a bad habbit that I have know clue how to break! She now has two upper teeth and 4 teeth on the middle bottom. She grinds them all the time!!!! It make a sound when she does it, that even I can hear, which I thought maybe that was why she is doing it. I try telling her a firm NO (which doesnt work) what else can I do? She doesnt like to chew on her chilled teething toys. Is this common? Will she mess up her teeth? Is it possible that she could chip them? She just started doing this about 2 days ago, and its driving me looney!

Hi,
I wouldn't worry about it, I have found that when babies are teething they tend to grind their teeth!! No it won't hurt her or crack or chip her teeth!!

Hope this helps!!

Thanks
