Grinding teeth
Dexter is nearly 6 months old and is teething. .. he's lost 3 fangs and a large side tooth.
The last few days he's been grinding his teeth a lot and constantly sticking his tongue out almost like he's trying to push his teeth out... is this normal, should I be worried
he kept me awake a lot last night, but other than that he is his usual happy self...
any advice/experience welcome xx

Re: Grinding teeth
