Pacifiers, Thumb-Sucking, Tongue-Thrusting, and More! We Aid Your Child in Moving On

Children’s self-soothing habits, such as thumb-sucking, pacifier use, or blanket sucking, are completely normal for those aged 0-4. However, as they move from baby teeth to permanent teeth, these habits can impede healthy dental development. Most kids naturally stop these habits between the ages of 2 and 4, but some may require additional assistance. 

Our pediatric dentists at Dental Clinic have expertise in gently breaking these habits in children and their caregivers. We use effective strategies and, when necessary, provide habit-breaking devices such as thumb guards. Our caring approach ensures that your child can break these bad habits, promoting both their smile and proper adult tooth development.
