Die Gewohnheit, am Daumen zu lutschen, schob die Vorderzähne nach vorne, Zungen-/Fingerfangvorrichtung

Mein 6-jähriger Sohn lutscht nachts immer noch am Daumen, wenn er schläft. Seine oberen Vorderzähne beginnen nach vorne zu ragen und seine Vorderzähne schließen sich nicht mehr. Gibt es jemanden, der einen Apparat installiert hat?

If the thumb sucking reflex continues after the age of 4-5, it deforms the upper jaw bone and creates an "anterior open bite" situation. Fixed or movable tongue and finger preventive appliances (palatal crib) applied by your physician will mechanically prevent the finger from creating a suction vacuum on the palate, making the habit completely forgotten in 2-3 weeks, and the teeth quickly return to their own position.

We had our daughter do it, she said a little for the first 3 days, but then she stopped sucking her thumb completely. His teeth also healed on their own, be sure to get them done.
