Thumbsie ® gets Accreditation from the Oral Health Foundation

We are really excited to announce that we have received official Product Accreditation from the Oral Health Foundation.

Official accreditation from the OHF means that a product has been independently endorsed by experts following rigorous scrutiny and testing on each item, so people buying Thumbsies® can be confident of its quality and efficacy. The Oral Health Foundation recognises Thumbsie® as a useful aid in oral health.

The Oral Health Foundation is the leading independent dental health charity based in the UK which aims to improve national standards of oral health.  As Thumbsie® works alongside dentists to help to stop children thumb sucking which can create dental problems such as overbite, misaligned teeth and even a malformed palette, we are particularly pleased to have been endorsed by the Foundation.

The OHF panel welcomed this innovative product designed to tackle to the problem of damage from occlusion (the way that teeth bite together) which can be caused by thumb or finger sucking and were impressed by the evidence submitted to demonstrate the damage of occlusion associated with thumb sucking.

Jo Bates, owner and founder of Thumbsie® said, ‘To be accredited by the Oral Health Foundation is amazing, I am absolutely thrilled.  We know that Thumbsie® is a great product as we have so many lovely success stories and happy customers, but to have approval from such a prestigious national body will give our customers assurance and confidence when buying from us.  I hope that this means that more people will find out about and trust Thumbsie® to help their child to stop thumb or finger sucking, quickly and easily, taking away the stress and anxiety that some families experience with this difficult process.’
