Looking for advice on thumb sucking and pacifier use and whether it affects the teeth and mouth as much as people say? Join host Jimmy Rees as he chats with Dr Juliette Scott, a paediatric dentist, as they discuss thumb sucking and the use of pacifiers/dummies. They chat about whether parents should be concerned if their child sucks their thumb or a pacifier, what is the best age for such habits to stop, and whether they can cause negative effects on the teeth and mouth. The Watch Your Mouth podcast is made possible thanks to Extra Oral Healthcare Program. For more oral health information, visit www.ada.org.au/tips.
