So my ds just got his 4th tooth today but yesterday I noticed and heard something strange.He is grinding his one top tooth with his two bottom ones. How do I stop that? Or is it ok? He doesn't do it if he has a binkie in his mouth but I don't want to use a binkie 24/7 either!

Ugghhh!!!  We have this problem also,  I can't stand that sound!!!  I am hoping it is a phase that will pass quickly!  I have found myself passing him a binkie also to stop the grinding...

Don't hold your breath my five year old is still grinding.

Take heart, though, the dentist says there is nothing wrong with it, it will go away on its own.  I hope it does before his permanent teeth come in!

DD has done this since she got her first tooth on the top. She now has 8 teeth and still does it :( It's like nails on a chalkboard for me. I hope this doesn't last until she's 5!
