teething, exploring, hunger, self soothing , sleep , tiredness are common reasons.
babies at this age put everything in mouth.
get a teether of good company, BPA free for baby.
also get some plastic toys with smooth edges , check for good quality .
also you can give some clean washed ccolorful cloths to baby to play with. they love different textures.
