Kids Dental, I have a eight year old still thumb sucking.
I am embarrassed that my eight year old son is still sucking his thumb. Because of his stupid habit I had to have the dentist give him teeth guard so that he does not push out his teeth. Though I know he does not wear it all the time.
His dentist told me I need to get him to stop before his adult teeth really start coming in or he will need to have braces. I am at lost as to what to do. My son know better then to suck his thumb in front of me but he does it when my back it turned.
How do I get him to stop this behavior? Advise is needed please.
