One of the major contributing causes to the development of malocclusion and other negative impacts on orofacial complexes is oral habits during and after preschool. Therefore, it is of interest to ascertain the prevalence of oral habits in preschoolers in Durg-Bhilai, Chhattisgarh, India. Using the cluster sampling technique, four schools two from each of Durg and Bhilai City were chosen to participate in the study. 400 LKG and UKG students, along with their mothers or caregivers, were chosen based on the inclusion/exclusion criteria. The Chi-square test was employed in the statistical study. Thus, preschoolers at durg-bhilai city, Chhattisgarh, India, had a high prevalence of oral habits.
学龄前及学龄后出现的口腔习惯是导致错牙合畸形发展以及对面部复合体产生其他负面影响的主要原因之一。因此，确定印度恰蒂斯加尔邦杜尔格-比莱地区学龄前儿童口腔习惯的流行情况很有意义。采用整群抽样技术，从杜尔格市和比莱市各选取两所学校参与研究。根据纳入/排除标准，选取了400名幼儿园小班和中班学生及其母亲或照料者。统计研究采用卡方检验。因此，印度恰蒂斯加尔邦杜尔格-比莱市的学龄前儿童口腔习惯流行率较高。
