My 8 yr old swims 5x's week, for average 1 1/2 hrs a time. Recently he's been getting out of the pool complaining of really sore back teeth - so much so he's not eating for a few hours after until they settle down. Any ideas what's causing this? What can I do about it more importantly?

thanks for the replies - we've seen the dentist who is unable to explain - said it may be the chlorine level in the pool on the enamel possibly??
It's predominantly his back teeth, starts hurting about 1/2 way through training, and lasts a few hours. Took him for his fav dinner after training the other night and he had 2 bites and couldn't eat any more for sore teeth so we know he's not faking it!!
