The aim of study was to find out morbidity in habit disorders in age group of 6-10 years so that early detection will be helpful to correct them to prevent it from further personality maladjustment. There was no statistical difference in gender wise habit disorders. The morbidity is due to multiple factors of physico- social environment. However severity of disease is not more here in this area.
