My son of 12 years old have a bad habit of putting both hands on cheeks and pressing them very tightly in exitement?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not problem: To adversely affect jaw shape or tooth alignment your son would probably have to do this 14 hours out of 24 every day. If you're concerned, have your son examined by an orthodontic specialist.
