How long it takes to eliminate a sucking habit depends upon FREQUENCY- the number of times the habit is practiced; INTENSITY- the amount or force applied to the teeth during sucking; and DURATION- the total amount of time spent sucking. It took this sweet 9 year old girl 18 months to eliminate her deleterious sucking habit but she did it!! Look at the improvement in her occlusion once she kicked the habit! IAOM CERTIFIED Orofacial Myofunctional therapists know how to achieve this using positive reinforcement and no hurtful dental appliances.
