All rights reserved.5My child has always sucked her thumb, even though I've tried to get her to stop. Is this a problem? And how do I get her to stop? Thumb sucking is natural up to the age of three or four. If it continues beyond the age of six, it can affect the front teeth by pushing them out so they don't bite together properly.Fri, 29 Jul 2011 00:09:51 GMTMy son always needs a dummy to stop crying and likes a little honey on it. Is this going to be a problem for his teeth in the future? Sucking is a natural instinct of infants. There has been debate in the past as to the usefulness of pacifiers (dummies). It appears that the benefits outweigh any potential shortcomings for children. Fri, 29 Jul 2011 00:09:45 GMTMy 5 year old son is really anxious as he had a bad dental experience. How do you manage him?Managing children for dental treatment is very different from treating adults. Children are different emotionally and physically. It’s important that children build up trust and a rapport with the dental team.Fri, 29 Jul 2011 00:09:40 GMT
