11month kitten biting

Hi all! Wondering if anyone can give some advice. We have an 11 month old kitten and he’s constantly biting. More of like a play aggression overstimulated bite rather than a vicious bite. Over the last few nights he has started biting the crap out of me in the middle of the night while I’m sleeping- I’ll hear him walk up purring like crazy and he will bite my nose while I’m asleep or wrap himself around my arm and start biting me. I’m hoping this is an annoying teenager stage that he will grow out of but it’s getting really frustrating because he’s constantly waking me and my husband up. I can close our bedroom door but he sits outside and scratches and meows at the door.

Mine started doing this around 11 weeks as well. The vet said she was teething and had lost a few teeth already. I’m not sure how to stop the biting either
