With a 92% success rate, it works by breaking the suction vacuum, removing the pleasure of sucking without discomfort or restricting play. Adjustable and easy to clean, it promotes healthier oral development and helps avoid long-term dental and speech issues. ## Description What are the dangers of thumb sucking? Often seen in the early stages, thumb-sucking may cause; chapped lips, cracked skin, calluses and finger nail infections.Most children experience only these minor effects of thumb-sucking and tend to stop around the age of 2.Its widely documented that thumb-sucking should be actively discouraged through toddler years to avoid more serious effects, which can include; Hindered speech developmentMisaligned teeth, if thumb-sucking continues as adult teeth begin to growAn asymmetrical bite. The soft jaws of a child can begin to change shape, making room for a thumb if sucked too hard and too often.Made from soft non toxic silicone, Dr Thumb fits over and securely fastens to the thumb of either hand. It does not restrict the childs ability to play and it does not cause any discomfort.Breaking the vacuumDr Thumb works by breaking the vacuum created when sucking a thumb. Ensuring a small gap between the childs thumb and the guard, it allows air to flow making it impossible to suck. Whilst the child will still be able to put their thumb in their mouth not having that sucking sensation will remove the childs pleasure of the habit - without creating any negative feelings. The habit is broken naturally, almost unconsciously.92% Success RateAs with refraining to exercise any habit, this process to stop thumb-sucking is quick. Dr Thumb claims a 92% success rate with the habit often broken within as little as 2 weeks, although it is recommended Dr Thumb be worn day and night for a period of 4 weeks.If however, your child sucks their right and left thumbs interchangeably showing little to no preference between the two - then you should consider two guards to break the habit. ## Features - The soft jaws of a child can begin to change shape, making room for a thumb if sucked too hard and too often - Made of silicone - It does not cause any discomfort ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00H2AWPRC | | ASIN | B00H2AWPRC | | Age Range Description | 3-7 years | | Best Sellers Rank | #396,338 in Health & Personal Care ( See Top 100 in Health & Personal Care ) #2,187 in Baby & Child Care | | Brand Name | Dr. Thumb | | Closure Type | Hook, Loop | | Colour | Transparent | | Country of Origin | USA | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 3.5 3.5 out of 5 stars (526) | | Date First Available | 15 April 2014 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Dimensions | 10.2 x 7.6 x 15.2 Centimeters | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 10.2 x 7.6 x 15.2 Centimeters | | Item Weight | 0.35 Pounds | | Item Weight | 159 g | | Item model number | DT | | Manufacturer | Dr. Thumb | | Manufacturer | Dr. Thumb | | Material Type | Silicone | | Model Number | DT | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Product Dimensions | 10.16 x 7.62 x 15.24 cm; 158.76 g | | Size | 1 Count (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Adjustable | | Sport Type | Gansa | | Target Use Body Part | Finger | | UPC | 686912042897 719926402620 603895768231 786417164701 885222053818 | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** 3-7 years - **Brand:** Dr. Thumb - **Colour:** Transparent - **Size:** 1 Count (Pack of 1) - **Use for:** Finger ## Images ![Dr Thumb Baby and Children Guard for Thumb Sucking Prevention and Treatment Large (3-7 years) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41Zcvzq-MwL.jpg) ![Dr Thumb Baby and Children Guard for Thumb Sucking Prevention and Treatment Large (3-7 years) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41ZzfzNqtbL.jpg) ![Dr Thumb Baby and Children Guard for Thumb Sucking Prevention and Treatment Large (3-7 years) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41mrLjLTojL.jpg) ![Dr Thumb Baby and Children Guard for Thumb Sucking Prevention and Treatment Large (3-7 years) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41MAbxAGRbL.jpg) ![Dr Thumb Baby and Children Guard for Thumb Sucking Prevention and Treatment Large (3-7 years) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41qfzYYGleL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this come with one or two guards?** A: It only comes with 1 guard. I wish they gave you an option and discount for 2. They work great for the thumb they are on. I am going to have to purchase a 2nd. **Q: Does it come with 2 ( one for each thumb) or is it just one ?** A: I wish it came with two. It comes with only one, but it fits both right or left. My daughter is 3 years old. She completely destroyed the silicone band. **Q: How do you stop a 19 month old from sucking his thumb without a "gadget?"** A: Gadgets didn't work for my child. If I had it to do over I would've let him suck a pacifier simply because you can take it away gradually. The thumb/finger is always in arms reach!! **Q: Can this be used for any other finger like index finger?** A: No, it can be used only for thumb. ## Frequently Bought Together - Dr Thumb for Thumb Sucking Prevention and Treatment, Stop Thumb Sucking Today (Large (3-7 years)) - Mavala Stop Deterrent Nail Polish Treatment | Nail Care to Help Stop Putting Fingers In Your Mouth | Bitter Taste| Easy Application | For Ages 3+ | 0.17 oz - Control-It Natural Nail Biting & Thumb Sucking Solution | 100% Natural Kid Safe Bitter Taste Deterrent | Gentle on Skin, Teeth, Nails | Kids, Adults & Teens | 21 Consecutive Days To See Results --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/86802284-dr-thumb-baby-and-children-guard-for-thumb-sucking-prevention](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/86802284-dr-thumb-baby-and-children-guard-for-thumb-sucking-prevention) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-11-10*
