In general, infants have a habit of swallowing their fingers, although there is a difference in the degree of difference between infants and children. According to the statistics of children who suck fingers extracted from Korean pediatric dentistry journals, , 107,500 from 19 months to 24 months, and 86,000 from 25 months to 36 months.

And the habit of sucking the finger gradually disappears gradually over time, but it may continue until late.

At this time, the habit of sucking a finger may cause abnormalities on the fingers such as erythema, dermatitis, blisters and fingers, and may cause tooth anomalies such as protrusion of the front teeth, malocclusion, anterior opening and occlusion, And it can cause severe problems such as stabbing and food poisoning due to transmission, and it is known that it can cause severe damage to face type.

On the other hand, infants and toddlers experience comfort with no joy, warmth, satisfaction, and tension through sucking their fingers, and often suck their fingers to satisfy various complaints, such as when they feel fear, hungry, to be.

Therefore, when the excessive finger sucking is restricted, it may cause psychological adverse effects on the infant. Therefore, it is necessary to pay close attention not to induce the side effects as described above because the sucking of the finger continues without affecting the infant.

Traditionally, in order to correct the habit of finger-sucking in ordinary households, there are many ways to wrap a bandage on a finger, how to put a bitter medicine on a finger, how to substitute a rubber nipple, Methods have been used, but they have not obtained the desired effects such as excessive stress to infants or hygiene problems.

In addition, these methods are some of the compulsory measures by the parents, so even though the parents and the infants spend time together and exchange affection, it is important to pursue the emotional stability of infants and young children. In the long run, the basic needs of infants and young children are not resolved, resulting in aggravation of infants and children.

Many mechanisms have been proposed to effectively prevent such finger sucking habits, including the "finger suction device" of Korean Utility Model Registration No. 0251645 (registered on October 10, 2001).

However, the conventional device for preventing finger sucking has a relatively complicated structure, so that the hand movements of infants are reduced when worn, and it is formed of a relatively hard material (steel, plastic), which is dangerous for infants to wear.

In addition, the area of contact with the skin near the hands of infants and children is widened, causing irritation to the skin due to friction, resulting in problems of itching and itching. The material is also not suitable for infants and young children and may cause skin troubles due to rash. There was a problem that it was exposed and not hygienic.

In addition, it is easily damaged by biting or chewing the parts rubbing with the teeth as the infant grows. In the past, it was inconvenient to separate and assemble different components of the material, Cracks of the parts, and the like.

In addition, the conventional finger suction preventing device has a problem that its function is limited and its use is limited.
