Hazards of pacifiers for infants:
In fact, pacifying the pacifier is good for the baby. It can calm the baby's restless mood, help the baby to go to sleep quickly, produce benefits for the body development, promote the baby's gastrointestinal peristalsis and increase appetite. For the parents, it also saves a lot of energy to coax the baby's annoyance.
1. lips
Long term use of pacifier will make baby form a high palatal arch, resulting in deformation of upper and lower lips, which is often referred to as convex mouth. The deformation of the upper and lower lips may also cause the baby's pronunciation problems. For example, when teaching the baby to speak, the baby can't speak clearly.
2. teeth
The pacifier pushes the baby's lower row of baby's small primary teeth backward, which causes the problem of the baby's upper and lower rows of teeth occlusion, resulting in uneven tooth pressure, and finally the teeth will grow in uneven layers, which is not conducive to cleaning the teeth, resulting in cavities.
3. face type
As a result of long-term sucking and pacifying the pacifier will make the baby's maxilla and mandible develop, leading to the malocclusion of the upper and lower teeth, which will affect the growth of the jaw, and then affect the development of the whole face, making the left and right faces asymmetric.
How often to change pacifier is the best:
Six months is the best time.
The time of 6 months is not qualitative. It can also be judged according to the wearing degree of pacifier. Each time the baby bites the pacifier, the time should not be more than 1 hour. If the baby always needs to bite the pacifier, it means that the baby should buy the molar biscuit.
Correct use of pacifier:
1. The style must be carefully selected to fit the pacifier of the baby's mouth type, preferably similar to the mother's nipple.
2. Wash it again before use. The baby's resistance is very weak.
3. After pacifying the baby to sleep, the pacifier must be taken away in time.
4. Pacify the pacifier and don't hang it on the baby's neck for a long time, which will form the use habit.
In fact, the use of pacifiers for a short time will not cause harm to the baby, but the baby does not have the ability to act and think independently when he is young. As the guardian of the baby, we must guide him correctly.
