Behaviour/development

4 year old with hand constantly in mouth

Our ds 4.3 has recently started biting on his hands and fingers all the time. He constantly seems to have his hands in his mouth. Anyone got any experience of this, what might be causing it and how to react? I guess we should take him to the dentist just in case its teeth related. Though he's an anxious, sensitive sort of boy so maybe could be a comfort habit?
Thanks in advance!
