A. you can visit a dentist for this and he or she will help you make a thumb cab and also council your child it is better to visit a paediatric dentist who are experts in this field. you can also make your child stand in front of the mirror and show him that he doesn't look nice when the thumb is in the mouth as 3 years is the maximum age we can wait for the habit to stop
