Has anyone notcied their baby chattering their teeth? Sometimes Kia will be uncontrolably chattering her teeth. I have noticed this at night and thought that it was equilivalant to us maybe gritting our teeth at nigiht when stressed then recently I saw her doing it during play time and when relaxed/ watching TV. It worries me b/c I do know that boxers are prone to epilepsy, and I wonder if these aren't "mini-seizures". She's only done it a few times now that I have seen and you can never predict it but I have a call in to the vet, I am awaiting his return, but in the meantime I welcome you comments.

Not sure about the teeth chattering, but we had an epileptic dog that had focal seizures where she did alot of chewing and lip smacking. Let us know what your vet has to say about it ~ Cathy

Tara will chatter her teeth when she is really excited.

I've noticed Luka sort of grinds his teeth and licks his lips while sleeping. He doesn't do it while awake tho...
How old is she? Could she be trying to relieve teething pain?

When Owen went to Spooky's (boxer girl) house to be boxer sat, I noticed that she was making a chewing/chattering type motion with her teeth, when they were first introduced. She has a REALLY good under bite and a long tongue, so we were all worried that she was going to hurt herself! I think her parent's said that she did it most when excited.
