Dogs do this when they encounter a particularly punguent smell or taste, particularly when they smell a female dog in heat, or even a human woman in estrus. It is called phrenulating. It is most commonly seen in Dogs when they encounter a female dog in heat although bitches will phrenulate when they encounter a scent that is complex and exciting.
It is a response to pheremones they detect in different things, particularly the scent or taste of female dog urine. I thought my dog was having a seizure the first time he did it, then I specifically watched him go lick up my female dogs urine (gross I know) and immediately it started again. The official name is "flehman" but it is a little different looking in dogs than other mammals. Other mammals lift their upper lip towards their nose, while dogs do the weird chattering thing. I know it says it is supposed to be a response to dogs in heat, but my girl dog is fixed, and so is the boy who was doing the smelling. He just likes it anyways.
If this is a male dog that has not been neutered, it could mean there is a female in heat somewhere in your area.
Another possibility is that it could be a partial seizure disorder, more common in particular breeds. If it is recurrent, it would be best to consult a vet.
Teeth chattering combined with drooling can mean several things. My 2 year old male does it when he's introduced to female dogs and puppies as well as when he is generally overexcited. I've also noticed him getting a fixed stare (whale-eye) and showing this behavior when he notices cats he is familiar with. Check your dog's body language when you see this and then look at what they are focusing on.
I have a female dog that "chatters" whenever another of my females is in heat, or when a litter of puppies is about to be born (to the very day). As you may guess, this has been very helpful to me. I don't think that it has so much to do with the penis being the catalyst, as with the detection of certain hormones in the other animal.
WHAT? MAYBE THEIR THIRSTY HAHAHA or maybe ur eating in front of their faces and they lick their mouth cuz they want some and at the same time their tired i think............can u tell me how 2 post a question?
As a warning.
its cold
A dogs teeth may chatter and they may drool if they are nervous. This can also happen if they have a dental disease.
Dogs usually chatter their teeth as a response to being cold. They drool in the presence of food or when they are hungry.
Male dogs typically extend their penises prior to mating. Male dogs may be unable to control their erections during times of extreme excitement or stress.
If your new dog is not spayed she may be coming into heat. This could be a reason for your other dog to drool, slobber or gnash it's teeth. Some dogs are more apt to do this than others. I have one that will drool a lot and kind of chatter his teeth when ever he is near a female; even a spayed female can have this effect on him.

Girls don't think of penises much - only guys think about penises all the time.

Dogs Have Stronger Teeth Than Cats And Have More Teeth Than Cats. Cats Have Sharper Teeth. But Wild Dogs Such As The African Wild Dog Has More Teeth And Stronger Teeth Than Domestic Dogs. Also Sharper Than Both Domestic Dogs And Cats.
When growing up, dogs will lose all their puppy teeth before they are 10 months old. By this time, all adult teeth will have grown. If older dogs lose their teeth it is for some other medical problem.
