The habits of Little One to suck a pacifier or pacifier until the age of five is claimed to have a bad impact on their health. To prevent this, Father and Mother are advised to keep Little from the pacifier since he was 6 months old. However, some children may be difficult to keep away from their favorite pacifiers.
Medically, stopping your little habit of using a pacifier continuously can reduce the risk for ear infections. Some experts also assume that pacifiers can risk making Little Talk late.
The reason is because sucking on a pacifier is suspected to make the mouth and jaw shape become abnormal. This condition will make it difficult to develop normal tongue and lip muscles.
In addition, Little will probably be lazy to practice talking if there is a pacifier in his mouth. In some cases, too often pacifiers can cause children to not be able to say 'hissing' words, such as s, sh, or z.
However, the exact link between suctioning habits and speech disorders in children is still controversial and needs further investigation.
