Oral habits since long have been the topic of interest to the dentist in general and paediatric dentist and orthodontist in particular. The controversies related to oral habits range from the simple genetic or non-genetic origin to underlying psychological cause. Oral habits, if persist beyond certain developmental age, can pose great harm to the developing teeth, occlusion, and surrounding oral tissues. These habits might be non-nutritive sucking (thumb, finger, pacifier and/or tongue), lip biting and bruxism events. Tongue thrust is the most common of them, these habits can result in damage to dento-alveolar structure hence causes and its management plan is important to every clinician. Vast number of studies have explored the prevalence of oral habits in young children worldwide to develop an effective preventive community measure to stop the development of these habits. Clinicians, by proper differential diagnosis and thorough understanding of natural growth and developmental processes, should take a decision for intervening. This review aims to understand the etiology behind the development of these oral habits to combat the problem from the root. Keywords : Oral , habits, management , development
