Does pacifier have any effect on children?

Nowadays, many mothers actually insist on breastfeeding. But when the baby is one year old, he needs to be weaned. At this time, mothers will prepare some milk for their children in order to ensure that their children can get adequate nutrition. If your baby drinks milk, he or she will need a pacifier. But many mothers have this question: Does eating a pacifier have any effect on the child's health?

1. Because the child keeps sucking on the pacifier, the salivary glands will continue to secrete, causing a lot of digestive enzymes in the mouth to be lost. This will cause great harm to the child's physical development in the long run, especially the excessive loss of digestive enzymes, which is very detrimental to the child's stomach digestion and absorption.

2. Because the child is constantly sucking on the pacifier, he will swallow a lot of air, which will cause intestinal cramps in the child's abdomen. Inhaling too much air will also cause the child to hiccup, and the child will spill milk, which will have a great negative impact on the body.

3. If the child repeatedly sucks on the pacifier, and the pacifier is not cleaned cleanly or thoroughly, the nipple will be contaminated. The child's immunity is not yet sound, and it is easy to cause some infectious diseases at this time, especially if the pacifier has not been disinfected or sterilized at high temperature, it is easy to bring the disease into the body.

4. If the child keeps sucking on the pacifier, the upper and lower jaws will protrude outward, which is very detrimental to the child's future bite and will also affect the beauty of the child's face. It will have a great impact on the child's future life, because poor tooth growth will affect future work and mate selection.

5. Children’s frequent use of pacifiers will be affected in their language and emotional communication, and will affect their physical and mental health development.

Based on the above effects of pacifiers on children, I believe parents already have some understanding of it. It is recommended that parents do not use pacifiers on their children on a daily basis, because children's mouths are sensitive tactile organs, and their liking for pacifiers is a manifestation of masturbation. Pay more attention to caring for your children in daily life. For their healthy development, do not let them develop the bad habit of sucking on pacifiers.
