Abstract:
Background: Thumb-sucking, a non-nutritive sucking behavior, is a natural reflex seen in infants but can persist into childhood if not addressed leading to various dental and orofacial issues, including malocclusion, dental arch deformities, speech difficulties, and facial asymmetry. The aim of the study was to explore the consequences of thumb-sucking habits among the school going children. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved among purposively selected 124 school going children, aged between 5-8 years with their parents attended in the outpatient department of University Dental College at Moghbazar, Dhaka, Bangladesh. The data were obtained through a pretested structured questionnaire and checklist through face-to-face interview from parents regarding background characteristics, consequences of thumbs sucking and oral examination of children respectively. Then, data were analyzed using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) software version 27 for descriptive analysis (frequency, percentage) and inferential statistics (chi-square test or fisher’s exact test) at 5% level of significance (P<0.05). Results: The study revealed that 77.4% of children aged 5-6 years and about 41.9% of parents reported that their child had thumb sucking habit. The thumb sucking habit was found to be statistically significant with start of age thumb sucking( p= <0.001), duration of thumb sucking ( p= <0.001), pronunciation of word clearly( p= <0.001), proclination of maxillary anterior teeth (P=0.002), asymmetry of face (P=0.002) and seek for dental advice or treatment(p=0.002). Majority of children (21.8%) start thumb sucking at the age 6-7 years. Only 8.1% of the children didn’t pronounce words clearly whereas only 5.6% had proclined maxillary anterior teeth, facial asymmetry and sought dental advice or treatment. Conclusion: This study found a significant association of thumb-sucking habit among children with notable consequences. It highlights the importance of early intervention and parental education and awareness regarding this habit's potential consequences on children's oral health and overall development. Update Dent. Coll. j: 2023; 13(2): 19-22

Abstract:
Thumb sucking is a behavioral habit disorder. Thumb sucking is considered as a normal developmental phase but may become a habit in some children. It can be due some insecurities, boredom, and loneliness experienced by the child and may develop after the birth of sibling. Persistent sucking of thumb or fingers in older children is a cause of concern as it may lead to dental malocclusion, soreness of fingers or thumb, and speech difficulties. Homoeopathy offers effective and safe treatment for thumb sucking in children. In this article an attempt is made to explain thumb sucking in children and its homoeopathic management.

Abstract:
In Reply.— In the course of Dr MacKenzie's considerable clinical experience, she has established some strong opinions about thumb sucking and a method for its treatment. We have been treating thumb sucking for more than 10 years1 and have only recently subjected our method to an empirical analysis. Prior to conducting our analysis, we did an extensive library search for empirical studies on the etiology and treatment of thumb sucking. We did not find any data-based references for the inevitability of a "power struggle" between thumb-sucking children and their parents, for the primary prevention of thumb sucking, or for the efficacy of long-term supportive visits to the pediatrician for thumb sucking.

Abstract:
The persistence of thumb sucking might also be harmful as it might be associated with the development of complications seen on the thumb as paronychia and nail deformities and in the mouth level as malocclusions. In this review, we have looked up studies in the literature to identify the effect of thumb sucking on the development of malocclusion. Thumb sucking in children usually occurs as a primitive reflex that appears in early childhood with no apparent causative factors. Children usually develop this thumb sucking habit because in this way they feel more comfortable and secure. The main cause behind the development of thumb sucking is the prolonged presence of the thumb in the mouth which creates pressure against the developing jaw and teeth. This may interfere with the process of tooth eruption leading to delayed or abrupt eruption events and malformations. The severity of malocclusion deformities is significantly associated with the chronicity and period of thumb-sucking habits. Other forms of occlusions secondary to thumb sucking include: anterior open bite, exaggerated overjet, posterior crossbite, retrognathic mandible, a diastema, temporomandibular joint disorders and the retroclined low anterior. Thumb sucking, however, is a self-limiting phenomenon and usually disappears as children grow older. However, when persistence is noticed, immediate management should be approached to avoid any potential complications.

Abstract:
To the Editor.— I practiced pediatrics for 14 years before I switched specialties to psychiatry, which I have practiced (both adults and children) for the past 21 years. Therefore, I have double reason to be perturbed by the article on aversive taste treatment in Pediatrics (1986;78:174-176), which is apparently offered as the voice of "Experience and Reason." To contradict this study of seven children from three families, I offer my experience since 1944 and the reasons for what I recommend.

O estudo da preval?ncia e fatores de risco dos h?bitos bucais de suc??o n?o nutritiva ? de grande relev?ncia para a Odontologia Preventiva e Interceptativa porque abrange conhecimentos do crescimento e desenvolvimento dentofacial e os aspectos psicol?gicos relacionados aos mecanismos de instala??o e persist?ncia destes h?bitos ap?s a idade de 5 anos, onde come?am a produzir altera??es oclusais e faciais permanentes. Objetivo: Esse estudo objetiva verificar a preval?ncia de h?bitos bucais e os prov?veis fatores de risco ? persist?ncia dos mesmos. Metodologia: O presente trabalho pesquisou 1.190 crian?as na faixa et?ria de 3 a 5 anos matriculadas em creches e pr?-escolas das redes de ensino p?blica e privada da cidade do Natal. O instrumento utilizado para coleta de dados foi um question?rio estruturado respondido pelos pais ou respons?vel. Resultados: Os resultados indicaram uma preval?ncia de 41% de h?bitos de suc??o n?o nutritiva, distribu?dos em 28,5% suc??o de chupeta e 12,5% suc??o de dedo. Foi encontrada rela??o entre a presen?a de h?bitos de suc??o de chupeta e a idade, renda, tempo de amamenta??o e escolaridade dos pais (p<0,05). A preval?ncia do h?bito de suc??o do dedo esteve relacionada ao sexo, renda, escolaridade dos pais e posi??o da crian?a na fam?lia (p<0,05). A freq??ncia de h?bitos de suc??o apresentou associa??o com o sexo, idade e escolaridade da m?e (p<0,05). Amamenta??o inferior a 6 meses (ORaj=2,931), renda familiar maior que 5 sal?rios (ORaj= 2,183) e idade de 3 anos (ORaj= 1,566) se apresentaram como fatores de risco independentes para o desenvolvimento do h?bito de chupeta. Para o desenvolvimento do h?bito de suc??o do dedo, apenas ? posi??o de filho ca?ula (ORaj= 1,452) foi considerado fator de risco independente das demais vari?veis. O sexo feminino (ORaj= 1,383) foi fator de risco independente quando se avaliou a freq??ncia do h?bito. Obtivemos uma alta preval?ncia de h?bitos de suc??o n?o nutritiva na popula??o estudada, onde as vari?veis que demonstram influ?ncia estatisticamente significativa na persist?ncia dos h?bitos de suc??o de chupeta foram a idade, o tempo de amamenta??o natural, renda familiar e a escolaridade dos pais, sendo que apenas as tr?s primeiras mantiveram-se como fator de risco independentes das demais. J? a suc??o de dedo, mostrou rela??o estat?stica com o sexo, escolaridade dos pais, renda familiar, posi??o da crian?a na fam?lia. Houve uma diminui??o na incid?ncia de h?bitos de suc??o de chupeta com o avan?ar da idade. Verificamos uma freq??ncia bastante elevada de suc??o de chupeta em crian?as amamentadas num per?odo inferior a 6 meses, enquanto para o h?bito de suc??o de dedo, n?o observamos rela??o com o tempo de amamenta??o natural

Abstract:

This study, based on daily recordings of infant feeding, comprised 506 infants from Uppsala, Sweden. All mothers had had previous breastfeeding experience of at least 4 months, and were planning to breastfeed the index child for ≥6 months.

Among exclusively breastfed infants there were wide variations in breastfeeding frequency and suckling duration per 24 hours both between infants and in the individual infant over time in the first 6 months. Most infants had an average of 1.0-2.9 feeds per night. Infants using a pacifier had fewer feeds and a shorter total suckling duration per 24 hours, and stopped breastfeeding earlier than infants not using a pacifier. These associations were not found for thumb sucking.

Accustoming the infants to solids was a lengthy process, the longer the younger the infant at introduction, and was associated with small changes in pattern and duration of breastfeeding. In contrast, formula was usually given in large amounts from the beginning, and when formula was given regularly the daily breastfeeding frequency and suckling duration declined swiftly. The younger an infant at the start of regular formula feeds, the shorter the breastfeeding duration. Occasional formula feeds did not affect the breastfeeding duration.

It is important for health personnel and parents to keep in mind that exclusively breastfed infants are not a homogeneous group, but rather members of distinct 'breastfeeding entities'. Moreover, if the aim is to introduce other foods 'under the protection of breast milk' it is important to realise that formula is also 'another food' and needs to be treated as such.

Abstract:
Introdução: A sucção digital é um dos hábitos orais deletérios mais comuns e vinculados na infância e que se não abandonado, atempadamente, tem graves consequências no desenvolvimento normal do sistema estomatognático. Objetivo: Avaliar o conhecimento dos responsáveis de educação, sobre os hábitos deletérios, nomeadamente o hábito de sucção digital. Materiais e Métodos: É um estudo transversal quantitativo e descritivo, com recurso a um questionário recolhido em clinicas privadas de medicina dentária, do conselho do Porto. A amostra foi constituída por 50 pais ou responsáveis de educação com mais de 18 anos. A pesquisa bibliográfica de artigos foi realizada em revistas científicas disponíveis em bases de dados electrónicas, com as seguintes palavras-chave: Oral habits, Thumb sucking, Finger sucking benefits, Non-nutritive sucking, Deleterious sucking habits. Resultados: Os resultados do estudo mostram que a maioria das pessoas (86%) conhece o hábito de sucção digital. Verificou-se que 42% dos participantes não considera o hábito normal e a maioria (28%) refere que este é o hábito com mais implicações negativas e o hábito de sucção de chupeta foi considerado, por 56% dos participantes, o hábito com menos implicações negativas. Conclusão: O nível de conhecimento dos pais sobre as implicações nocivas do hábito de sucção digital não é o desejável. O médico dentista deve estar atento e fazer uma boa avaliação dos comportamento da criança, do envolvimento ou não de hábitos orais e posteriormente criar um suporte multidisciplinar para o sucesso do abandono do hábito e correção das possíveis alterações oclusais.
Introduction: Digital suction is one of the most common and common deleterious oral habits in childhood and, if left unattended, has serious consequences in the normal development of the stomatognathic system. Objective: To evaluate the knowledge of the responsible of education, about the harmful habits, namely the habit of digital suction. Materials and Methods: It is a quantitative and descriptive cross-sectional study using a questionnaire collected from private dental clinics of the Porto council. The sample consisted of 50 parents or guardians of education aged over 18 years. The bibliographic research of articles was carried out in scientific journals available in electronic databases, with the following keywords: Oral habits, Thumb sucking, Finger sucking benefits, Non-nutritive sucking, Deleterious sucking habits. Results: The results of the study show that most people (86%) know the habit of digital sucking. It was found that 42% of the participants did not consider the normal habit and the majority (28%) reported that this is the habit with the most negative implications and the pacifier sucking habit was considered by 56% of the participants, the habit with less Negative implications. Conclusion: Parents' level of knowledge about the harmful implications of the digital sucking habit is not desirable. The dentist should be attentive and have a good evaluation of the child's behavior, whether or not they are involved in oral habits, and then create a multidisciplinary support for the success of habit abandonment and correction of possible occlusal changes.

Abstract:
Os hábitos bucais deletérios são aqueles que promovem alterações no desenvolvimento craniofacial e muscular, e iniciam-se na infância. Dentre os principais hábitos pode-se citar a sucção nutritiva e a não-nutritiva, deglutição atípica e respiração bucal. O objetivo do presente trabalho é atraves de revisão de literatura com busca em base de dados, estudar mais especificamente os hábitos de sucção não-nutritiva e as maloclusões advindas de tais hábitos. Conclui-se que o hábito de sucção não-nutritiva é prejudicial e implica alterações na cavidade oral, sendo o diagnóstico precoce de extrema importância e quando não tratado em tempo hábil a terapêutica multidisciplinar faz-se necessária.
The deleterious oral habits are those that promote changes in craniofacial and muscular development, and begin in childhood. Among the main habits we can mention the nutritive and non-nutritive sucking habit, atypical swallowing and oral breathing. The objective of the present study is to review the literature with database research, to study more specifically the habits of non-nutritive sucking and the malocclusions arising from such habits. It is concluded that the habit of non-nutritive sucking is harmful and implies alterations in the oral cavity, being the early diagnosis of extreme importance and when not treated in a timely manner multidisciplinary therapeutics becomes necessary.

Abstract:
Substance abuse is a difficult situation for anyone to deal with, but the problem is compacted when children are involved. Parents who are substance abusers may knowingly or unknowingly be causing a number of problems for their child. Substance abuse in a parent can lead to child abuse and neglect. A child can develop anxiety; this can include overachievement, constant need to please others, fear of harm coming to the family, and concern about getting home on time. Children can experience depression including symptoms like fatigue, listlessness, and no interest in pleasurable activities. For a child with a parent who abuses drugs or alcohol, there is a strong likelihood they will experience psychosomatic illness and complaining often about not feeling well. The child may also show behaviours evident of regression, including thumb-sucking, enuresis and infantile behaviour. Phobias can occur, which sometimes are about attending school. Some additional effects on a child can include low self-esteem and social isolation. These can encompass difficulty making decisions, self put downs, reluctance to try new activities, keeping to one's self, no friends and avoiding peer contact. This chapter aims to describe and increase awareness of the harmful effects of parental substance abuse on children. Therefore, the trends in substance abuse are being discussed to give the reader an understanding of the widespread and complex social phenomenon and the ones most affected; the children.
