A 6-month Study on the Feasibility, Safety, and Tolerability of a Silicone Myofunctional Infant Pacifier

The goal of this interventional feasibility study is to learn about the feasibility, acceptability, and safety of a novel myofunctional pacifier in infants from birth to 6 months of age. The pacifier is designed to mimic the maternal nipple, which may improve the structures of the mouth and nose to prevent problems caused by standard pacifiers. Long-term use of standard pacifiers has been associated with abnormal orthodontics, ear infections, and even sleep apnea in young children. The main question the study aims to answer is: Will infants accept the new pacifier, and are there any problems with its use? Participants will be followed for 6 months and have digital scans of their oral cavity every three months to monitor the palate\'s development.
