Guinea pigs don't actually get itchy teeth. They are rodents, and this means their teeth never stop growing. To keep their teeth worn down, they will gnaw the wooden edges of their cage. Maybe this is what you interpret as having itchy teeth.

If you don't give your guinea-pig pieces of untreated wood to gnaw on, it's possible for their teeth to grow so long that they can't eat.
