Student who makes noises that bother others

I have 2 different students that I am working with both frequently make noises that disturb other students. We have tried gum/mints and that is not working consistently. I realize they may be making these noises to cover up other environmental noises,or need noise to help focus during quiet work times. I am thinking about trying a meteronome in each of their classrooms, however I am not sure how the teachers will feel about this. I will continue to try to educate the teachers about this benefit.
