It is confirmed and attested by most qualified orthodontists and pediatricians that thumb sucking habits inflict most damage between the ages of three and four which is the time when permanent teeth have started to grow. At this age, thumb sucking is responsible for the disturbance of the alignment of teeth by pushing the upper front teeth out, the lower front teeth in and the teeth at the sides inward. Furthermore, children with thumb sucking habits are found to be more susceptible to flu, cold and other diseases as well. Helping the thumb sucking child with maximum levels of comfort is the main aim of the aid from Your Hand Aid. They take great pride in their design which revolves around effectively breaking thumb sucking habits without causing any sort of discomfort or pain to children.
Unlike other aids which use the principle of causing discomfort to children when aids worn on thumbs are taken in to the mouth, the aid from Your Hand Aid breaks thumb sucking by ensuring the thumb does not make it near the child's mouth at all. Furthermore, unlike other hand aids, this aid is not made from vinyl plastics which are known to emit harmful toxins. Another important feature which plays a significant role in its success in helping the thumb sucking child is that while it prevents thumb sucking and works towards effectively breaking thumb sucking habits, it does not in any way impair the activity of the child's hand. It is important that preventive aids work without becoming a distraction for the child and this is ensured in the aid from Your Hand Aid because it has been designed to not completely cover the thumb, allowing movement comfortably in all directions. In addition to this, the aid from Your Hand Aid works towards helping the thumb sucking child break free of their thumb sucking habits during the day and night both.
