Thumb or finger sucking in infants
| ||||||||
 |
"Dr. Splaingard, should I worry about thumb or finger sucking?" |
|
Thumb sucking is perfectly normal for infants; most
stop by the age of two. Prolonged (beyond age 5 or 6 years) thumb
sucking can create crowded, crooked teeth or bite problems. At Kent J Splaingard DMD we
will be glad to suggest ways to address a prolonged thumb-sucking habit. Call us at 618 877-6303 for more information. |
