Default Chewing the metal bottle spout - risk to teeth?

Recently Storm has taken to chewing the metal spout on the water bottle. He's never been much of a chewer before - cardboard and wood are always left immaculate.

i've checked the waterbottle and it's working fine so it's not a problem there, i've also been keeping a dish of water in his cage to be doubly sure. Due to all plastic parts being on the outside he's not at risk of losing all the water but i am worried if it could damage his teeth (currently his teeth are fine). Does anyone know if this is a risk and if i should consider swapping to a dish more permentantly? If it's not a problem i'll probably just modify the bottle a bit so it's not so noisey when he gnaws on it.

thanks in advance
