Thumb or finger sucking in infants
 

"Dr. Lichter, 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 Derek M Lichter, DDS we will be glad to suggest ways to address a prolonged thumb-sucking habit.

Call us at 619 422-5317 for more information.
