I believe, if my memory serves me well, discussion about chewers, or biters...and, perhaps, grinders and that keeping him busy by chewing on some gummy toy. I remember looooonnng time a co worker who couldn't help it to chew on every pencil while we had meetings, or just when was thinking pondering without realizing doing it. A friend's NT son grinds his teeth when he sleeps so he wears special dental apparatus and he goes through several a year.

Instead of saying don't do that give him something to grind on? I don't know.

My son never did that. Only when he was on large amounts of Valproic acid that he bit spoons, etc. so bad to wear off his teeth, when the VPA was reduced he stopped and the doc said that the drug was causing 'too much tension'.
