He tends to bite a lot and I want to know how I can make him stop because his teeth are really sharp and it hurts.

A stern and forceful "No" should get him to stop biting. Once he does, offer an appropriate item or toy for him to bite and chew. Praise and rewards him consistently when he complies. If he continues to bite, immediately stop all interaction until he settles down. This may include walking away from him or putting him in another room. Be firm and be consistent.
