Baby grinding teeth

Hi, my 9 month old ds has 3 teeth and sometimes grinds them together. Not often but just sometimes.

Does anyone have any advice / experience?

We've got his first dentist appt soon so I'm going to mention it then, just thought I'd ask on here too. He's my first baby.

My DS did that too. I also spoke to the dentist about it. He said there's nothing to be done, and he'll grow out of it. The dentist was right, and his teeth haven't suffered for it, even though the habit lasted months. DD is cutting her teeth at the moment, just waiting to see if she starts doing it too!

Yes mine did it when she had two on top and two on bottom - it made me shudder! She stopped after a month or two. Must just be odd having them in their mouth for a while.

Mine just started doing this yesterday, it's a horrible noise. He's almost 8 months and has one top and two bottom front teeth.
