Thumb Sucking Habits | Las Vegas Children’s Dentists
Welcome to Las Vegas Children’s Dentists! Today, we're discussing thumb sucking habits and their potential impact on your child's oral health.
Risks of Prolonged Thumb Sucking
While thumb sucking is common in young children, prolonged thumb sucking can start to pose risks of permanent dental issues.
Here are some signs indicating thumb sucking might be impacting your child’s oral health:
Misalignment of Teeth
Misalignment of Teeth: Visible gaps or misalignment, particularly in the front teeth, can be an early indicator.
Changes in Jaw Structure
Changes in Jaw Structure: Look for changes in the shape of the jaw or facial structure, which might indicate alterations caused by constant sucking.
Difficulties in Eating or Speaking
Difficulties in Eating or Speaking: Problems with chewing or abnormal speech patterns, including lisps, may develop due to the dental changes caused by thumb sucking.
