Grumpy baby.. Help!?

How long was your baby "teething" for before they cut their first tooth? Asking this because my 5 month old seems desperate to chew on anything he can get his mouth on, he's drooling buckets and over the past week or so he's been having crying/shrieking episodes.. I feel so helpless :(
