It is not only sugar and carbonated drinks that ruin teeth. There are several other habits that you and your child should avoid, for the sake of beautiful, straight and healthy pearly whites.
Thumb sucking – a big no-no!
If your child is sucking on his/her thumb right after the permanent teeth have started to show up, with this bad habit they might easily develop misaligned teeth. It is not unusual that children of 6 years or even older ones cannot give up on the thumb sucking habit.
With this bad habit, it is not only the teeth that will have to suffer, but also the jaw structure can be modified. Therefore, make sure to help your little one get rid of the nasty habit.
