Pacifiers and Thumb Sucking: How Oral Habits Impact Your Child’s Dental Health
If your child regularly engages in thumb, finger, pacifier, lip, or tongue sucking, it could potentially alter the growth trajectory of their teeth or jaw. In some cases, bone changes can become noticeable as early as 18 months of age. Because early intervention is the gold standard in modern orthodontics, Professional Dental is here to help. Our team provides expert pediatric orthodontic consultations across our multiple Utah locations, ensuring your child’s teeth and jaws develop in alignment from the very start.
