Hi Sherry
Have you assessed the baby's labial frenulum? If the baby's labial
frenulum is tight the upper lip may not flange properly causing the
teeth to rub against the nipple.
From personal experience, my son had this problem. The frenulum went
right down between his front teeth. Nursing always felt like sand
paper was rubbing on my areola. His front teeth made dents in my
areola. When I asked the dentist, he said he would cut the frenulum
when my son was older. He obviously knew that an active child will cut
his own while playing because he didn't have to have it cut, but it
sure did bleed!
Good luck!
