Habit Therapy Pediatric Dentistry Frisco, Texas
Finger, Thumb, and Tongue Habit Therapy
Your Frisco kids dentist Dr. Justin and Dr. Sage are trained to notice the habits and changes in your kids’ teeth early on. It’s important to stop the behavior either by 1: Bringing it to your attention to help correct as needed or 2: Applying a device that discourages the negative behavior
Habit Therapy (Thumb Sucking and Teeth Health)
Sucking is a perfectly natural reflex and can even begin in the womb. Young children can find it relaxing and comforting which is why so many sucking their thumb or finger when falling asleep. Most children will naturally stop sucking their thumb between the age of two and four years old. This habit is perfectly harmless during the first two or three years of life, while a child still has their baby teeth and before the adult teeth begin to erupt. Kids oral habits become more of a problem when they continue into early childhood, and they can affect the development of the teeth and jaws.

What diet and nutritional advice can be offered for building strong teeth?
Experts agree that children need food from all the major food groups to grow properly and stay healthy. Too many carbohydrates, sugars (for example, from cake, cookies, candies, milk, fruit juice, and other sugary foods and beverages), and savory foods and starches (for example, pretzels and potato chips) can cause tooth decay. How long carbohydrates remain on the teeth is the main culprit that leads to tooth decay. Read more
The effects of fruit on kids teeth
We all know that fruit is full of vitamins and an important part of kids diets. But did you know that too much fruit (whether it’s fresh fruit, fruit juices, dried fruit or canned fruit) can have a negative effect and contribute to problems such as cavities and erosion, especially if your kids are grazing on fruit all day?
