Answer

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.  Your dentist will be glad to suggest ways to address a prolonged thumb-sucking habit.

If you have questions, please contact our office.
