Pacifiers For Babies With Teeth

When your baby gets teeth, it can be hard to find a pacifier that they won’t just chew up, which can be a choking hazard. For older babies, you need something that is going to be bigger and stronger, i.e. something they can’t chew up. Fortunately, there are a few different pacifiers on the market that are strong enough for your child to suck on while they have teeth that won’t tear apart. Please find out more information about Pacifiers & Baby's Teeth in this blog.

This leaves extra room for the baby's tongue, reducing pressure on the gums and teeth. The Playtex OrthoPro is available with either a latex or a silicone nipple, both BPA-free. Silicone nipples are more durable than latex and easier to clean. However, latex nipples are softer and more flexible. The OrthoPro has vents on the mouth shield to maximize airflow and prevent skin irritation. Parents can purchase models based on their baby's age.

Keeping The Binky Safe
