Nothing happens to your thumb, but you can develop an overbite. I know this because it happened to me. I sucked my thumb when I was little and then had a 1 inch overbite. I needed braces and other dental instruments for years to correct my teeth.



What do you mean? sounds like you are saying something bad can happen if you suck your thumb...? only thing I can possibly think of is become addicted! :P I did for a fair few baby years of my life..until quite an old age..embarassing stuff! o.O But anyway! I dont think anything can happen to your thumb :)



Your front teeth can become bucked (stick out). It also interferes with the roof of your mouth causing sinus issues in the future. I always thought it was nasty because your hands are so germy.
My sister sucked her thumb and developed this big blister looking thing on her thumb. Gross.



Well, you can be seen as a freak.
Your teeth can become crooked.
You may develop OTHER compulsive behaviors.
You may not learn appropriate and healthy ways to deal with stress.



You become a baby again.



You get mini hickeys on them. But it does affect your teeth.
