Thumb or finger sucking in infants
 

"Dr. Sternhagen, 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 Paul Guy Sternhagen DDS FAGD we will be glad to suggest ways to address a prolonged thumb-sucking habit.

Call us at (989) 793-6480 for more information.
