Commonly Asked Questions Of Dr. Christ About Your Children's Dental Care...

 

"Dr. Christ, 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 Robert M Christ DMD we will be glad to suggest ways to address a prolonged thumb-sucking habit.

Call us at 727 934-1200 for more information.
