Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years ago

A. there is no problem in using pacifier / nipple / teether/ soother if cleaned properly. the problem arises when it falls down and goes again inside the oral cavity of the child without proper cleaning and sterilization. if it is not cleaned and goes in the oral cavity can cause infection and cough and cold and lxoose motion pacifiers may increase the risk of ear infections by addingx germs to your baby's mouth. prolonged use of pacifiers may also lead to dental deformities.
