Abstract
Oral habit is a part of normal development in children and is a prime concern for parents. It is a learned pattern of muscle contraction with complex nature, which is a repetitive act, commonly seen from infancy and should diminish automatically as age advances. These habits can result in damage to dentoalveolar structure. Therefore, dentists play a crucial role in giving necessary information to parents.
