The aim of this study is to assess the use of electronic habit reminder and palatal crib in the cessation of thumb/finger sucking habit. Treatment of thumb/finger sucking by extraoral approaches are well accepted by school-age children (Adair, 1999). It was reported in a case study by Krishnappa et al that the use of an extraoral electronic habit reminder is a new method used for cessation of thumb/finger sucking habit in short time and it is more comfortable and acceptable to the child (Krishnappa et al, 2016).
