only the sucking thumb is a little bit smaller
Sucking your thumb can potentially affect the alignment of your teeth and the development of your jaw if done excessively or for a long period of time during childhood. It can lead to issues with bite and tooth positioning. It is advisable to encourage children to stop sucking their thumb by the age of 5 to minimize any negative effects on dental and facial development.
One way to stop sucking your thumb is to identify triggers that make you want to suck your thumb and find alternative ways to cope with those triggers, such as using a stress ball or taking deep breaths. You can also try wearing a glove or bandage on your thumb to make it less accessible for sucking. Seeking support from a therapist or counselor may also help you address underlying reasons for thumb sucking.
Up to 80% of children under age 2 suck their thumb with the percentage decreasing with age. It is estimated that up to 2% of adults continue the habit, with the highest (unrealistic) estimate at 12%. The largest fall off occurs between the ages of 4-6, with the next fall off occurring at 8-12, slowly diminishing thereafter.
Sucking on your thumb can be a comforting habit for some individuals, often associated with feelings of security and relaxation. However, prolonged thumb-sucking can lead to dental issues and should generally be discouraged as a behavior in older children and adults.
Thumb sucking is a common self-soothing behavior seen in both girls and boys. It can provide comfort and security in times of stress or anxiety. However, if the behavior persists beyond infancy and toddlerhood, it may be important to address it to prevent any potential negative effects on dental health or social development.
Thumb sucking is a common self-soothing habit that many children adopt. It often provides comfort and helps to reduce anxiety and stress. However, if the habit persists past the toddler years, it can lead to dental issues and should be discouraged.

Is the sentence infant lay quietly lay sucking the thumb correct ?
I wasn't able to stop smoking until I restarted my thumb sucking habit. This was when I was almost 12 years old (yes...I know...) and had been smoking since I was 8 after I stopped sucking my thumb shortly before. Though it has changed the shape of my teeth (my uppers are far more forward than they used to be), and I'm now 18 years old, I think sucking my thumb is far better than smoking, in terms of health. I don't care what others think or do or stare about. It's my thumb and I'm not interfering with their space, so thumb's up...and in! I know if I stopped sucking my thumb I'd start smoking again.
Nothing it does not hurt the bone at all!
he was hungry
Get him to suck something else...
To stop children from thumb sucking, try positive reinforcement by praising and rewarding them when they don't suck their thumbs. You can also try distracting them with toys or activities to keep their hands busy. Additionally, using bitter nail polish or thumb guards can help discourage thumb sucking.
