    The first dummy - safety from the very first moment

    Sponsored by MAM

    There are several benefits of pacifiers, especially MAM pacifiers, which are specially designed to minimize the impact on teeth - and at the same time satisfy baby's sucking needs!

    MAM is a brand that has been loved by parents and babies alike for almost 50 years! Why is that? Well, because they develop their products together with medical experts, such as midwives, to ensure they are breastfeeding-friendly and pediatric dentists to look after baby's dental and jaw development. What's more, they come in many beautiful colors and designs to choose from. MAM makes everything from baby bottles to teething rings, breastfeeding accessories and of course dummies.

    The pacifier can be a great help for many parents in satisfying their baby's natural sucking needs. Even if the baby has free access to breast or bottle feeding, there is often a need to suck even between meals - not for nourishment, but for comfort and security. In such cases, it can be helpful to offer a pacifier to help the baby settle down. It can reduce the need for constant proximity to the breast and give both baby and parent some breathing space. When breastfeeding is going well and a stable breastfeeding relationship has been established, it is often possible to introduce a dummy.

    But, how do you know which dummy is best?

    MAM has designed its pacifiers to reduce the stress on baby's teeth and tooth development which is completely unique for their particular dummies. The thin teat allows the jaw to rest more naturally, minimizing the risk of dental problems and providing much better conditions for your child's dental health than a round teat. 

    Tips for pacifier use

    - Sterilize the pacifier before first use

    - Rinse daily in warm water, without detergent

    - Check pacifiers regularly and replace if worn

    - Replace the dummy every 1-2 months for best hygiene and safety

    We love MAM's pacifiers in neutral colors and with inspiring illustrations! You can find the full range of dummies by clicking here:

    MAM products are developed with experts such as dentists, pediatricians and midwives. MAM products are free of BPA/BPS and the pacifiers meet the EU standard EN 1400.
