SOUNDS LIKE AN ANXIETY THING.....LITTLE KIDS SOMETIMES SUCK THEIR THUMB OR CARRY A SECURITY BLANKET....MOST GROW OUT IF IT.
SOME GET OLDER AND BITE THEIR NAILS, TWIRL THEIR HAIR OR CRACK THEIR KNUCKLES......
SOUNDS LIKE HE MIGHT NEED SOME ANXIETY COUNSELLING AND A NEW HABIT TO REPLACE THIS ONE. GET THEM A HANDHELD STRESS-BALL TO SQUEEZE....

Possible that he may have a teeth problem,I would need to know more to say what else I think it may be. If the kid is chewing to just chew or is it an anger thing.

Sounds like some form of mental illness, seriously. Is it indiscriminate chewing or just certain items?

It might an obsessive compulsive disorder, vitamin deficiency, a fetish maybe, or some other psychologically related disorder.
you should to him/her and ask why is she/he chewing on everything.

Could be any number of things. Anxiety, stress, pica or simply a bad habit. It would probably be a good idea to speak with your doctor about it.
