If your teen is having problems with a wet bed try using an alarm to get him up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Set the time for one half hour before he usually wets the bed. Get up with him for the first two weeks to a month, so that you know he has gotten up with his alarm clock. After that amount of time, he should have established the habit, but still use the alarm to be sure.
