“…In this study, all the participants have only one oral habit. In another study, it was found that the majority had only one oral habit present, however 69 (38%) children presented with more than one oral habit (Dutta and Verma, 2018). Lip biting was found to be the most prevalent habit (Murrieta-Pruneda, 2009).…”

“…Oral Habits are acquired by automatism represented by an altered pattern of muscle contraction with complex characteristics which proceed unconsciously on a regular basis (Dutta and Verma, 2018) Repetitive behaviour of habit is common in the infantile period and most of them are started and stopped spontaneously. The most common and earliest repetitive behaviours seen in the infantile period is digit sucking (Maguire, 2000) Development of these habits are considered to be a part of the normal sequence of maturation process in children however they potentially become a problem / harmful one under the circumstances of mental, physical and socioeconomic stress (Maguire, 2000).…”

“…There has been an increase of prevalence of oral habits in children (Maguire, 2000;Dutta and Verma, 2018). In India there has been a reported prevalence of oral habits in mixed dentition as low as 3% in North India and 30% in South India.…”

Oral habits in children is considered to be one of the most common etiology for orthodontic malocclusion, the prolonged effect of these habits can result in alternation of orofacial structures. Habits are acquired by automatism, represented by an altered pattern of muscle contraction with complex characteristics. In very young children some habits are considered to be a normal process of development at least till 3yrs of age. Oral habits could be parafunctional or functional. It has been observed that there has been an ascending trend in the prevalence of oral habit in children. Thus the aim of this study is to determine the effects of oral habits on dentition. Completed case sheets were collected from a private dental college. Case sheets were taken from June 2019 to April 2020. Data was retrieved and evaluated by 2 reviewers. Once the data was collected, it was then tabulated based on the parameters which are habits, molar relation, malocclusion, age and gender. Correlations between the parameters are determined. The study showed that a total of 50 children ages from 5-15 years old had oral habits. Tongue thrusting was found to be the most common oral habit (44%) Class II Div I malocclusion was mostly seen in thumb sucking patients (31,6%). The 9 year old children were found to be the highest number of children with oral habits. In this study, we observed that children with habits may result in malocclusion if they persist with the habit.

“…Parafunctional habits occur due to nonfunctional and unnecessary actions (thumb sucking, lip biting, etc). (Govindaraju, Jeevanandan and E. Subramanian, 2017; Ravikumar, Jeevanandan and Subramanian, 2017)(Christabel and Linda Christabel, 2015)(Packiri, Gurunathan and Selvarasu, 2017) Deleterious oral habits have limited effects on an individual's health, but play a major role in altering the position of the teeth, interferes with the normal growth of jaws and function of the orofacial musculature (Puskaric, Tadic and Djordjevic, 2016;Dutta and Verma, 2018)(Govindaraju, Jeevanandan and E. M. G. Subramanian, 2017b), The factors that determine the effect of oral habits have on the individuals oral health include duration of the habit per day, degree and intensity of the habit (Kamdar and Al-Shahrani, 2015). Oral habits are considered as an abnormal act if it persists after the age of three.…”

A habit is a routine of behavior or doing that is repeated regularly and tends to occur unconsciously. Oral habits such as thumb sucking, nail and finger biting, tongue thrusting, lip biting , bruxism, etc can produce deleterious and destructive effects on the oral structures. A patient's oral health can be affected by these adverse habits. Thumb/digit sucking habit is the repeated and forceful sucking of the thumb with associated buccal and lip musculature. Dental caries is a common problem to any dentition, at any age group. They are most prevalent in cases with poor oral hygiene maintenance. The aim of this study is to assess the association between oral hygiene and DMFT index with dental caries, in children with digit sucking habits. A retrospective study was done in an institutional setting to study the relation between oral hygiene status and dental caries in patients with digit sucking habits. All patients (age group of 18 and less) who had visited the hospital from June 2019 to April 2020 were taken into consideration. The case sheets of all the patients were analyzed using the parameters such as gender, OHIS, DMFT. The data was tabulated and statistical analysis was done in SPSS. Analysis of gender with DMFT and OHIS were done. Out of the 18 patients with digit sucking habits, 11 of them were male and 7 of them were females. Majority of the patients had a really low score on the DMFT index. 0-5 was the lowest and 15 patients had this score. 8 patients had OHIS between 0.6-1. Male patients were seen to have higher DMFT and OHIS than female patients. There was no significant relation between digit sucking habit and dental caries. Oral hygiene played a big role in the occurrence of dental caries.

“…Habits are acquired automatisms,represented by an altered pattern of muscle contraction with complex characteristics, which proceed unconsciously and on a regular basis (Ravikumar, Jeevanandan and Subramanian, 2017). Deleterious oral habits are the common problem of paediatricians which affects the quality of life (Dutta and Verma, 2018). Whereas ,oral habits are repetitive behaviour in the oral cavity that result in the loss of tooth structure and they include digit sucking ,lip sucking, lip biting, nail-biting , bruxism, self-injurious habits, mouth breathing and tongue thrusting (Nowak and Warren, 2000), (Barbosa and Gavião, 2008).…”

Oral habits are repetitive behaviour in the oral cavity that results in malalignment of the dentofacial structure and they include digit sucking ,lip sucking, lip biting, nail-biting , bruxism, self-injurious habits, mouth breathing and tongue thrusting. This study was taken to assess the prevalence of deleterious oral habits among school children.A Sample size of 6200 patients under 3 to 15 years of age were taken into study. Their case records were reviewed and retrieved from patients reported to a private Dental Hospital, India. Details regarding their demographic information and presence or absence of oral habits were collected. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS ( version 26.0) .Prevalence rate among school children with deleterious oral habits was evaluated. Overall 27 % of the school going children had deleterious oral habits.Nail biting (28.52 %) habit was most commonly seen followed by thumb sucking habit ( 19.39 %) , Mouth breathing habit (19.01 %), Tongue Thrusting habit (17.87 %) and Lip biting habit (15.21 %).Higher prevalence of these oral habits among children were seen in this study population.This highlighted the need for preventive orthodontic treatment at an early age of life, so that future occurrence of malocclusion can be avoided.
