Thumb or finger sucking in infants
| ||||||||||
|
|
"Dr. Yaremko, should I worry about thumb or finger sucking?" |
|
Thumb sucking is perfectly normal for infants; most
stop by the age of two. Prolonged (beyond the age of eruption of the
permanent front teeth) thumb
sucking can create crowded, crooked teeth or bite problems. At Eric Yaremko DMD we
will be glad to suggest ways to address a prolonged thumb-sucking habit. Call us at (888) 284-9618 for more information. |
