8 mos. old grinding teeth?

My son has 8 teeth and he grinds them constantly! How do I stop this? He won%26#039;t take a pacifier and distracting him only works for seconds.

8 mos. old grinding teeth?
My son grinds his teeth when he%26#039;s teething. As soon as a tooth pops threw he%26#039;ll stop for a while before he starts teething again! Try giving him tylonel or baby oragel if you notice he%26#039;s teething. Or you could try finding stuff for him to chew on instead of grinding his teeth.
Reply:talk to the pediatrician about it. at that age there may not be much you can do about it right now.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think there is much you can do. My son is 14 months and grinds his teeth when he is teething. I try to give him other things to chew on and I have noticed that he is chewing on his blanket now. I also give him baby orajel and sometimes tylenol if I notice nothing is helping him.
