Did you know prolonged pacifier use may affect much more than just teeth?

Research has linked extended pacifier habits to:
• narrow upper jaws
• mouth breathing
• tongue posture issues
• crossbites and open bites
• altered facial growth

Why does this matter?

Because the way a child’s jaws develop directly affects their airway, sleep quality, and breathing patterns later in life.

One of the biggest findings in the research:
👉 Duration matters.

Occasional soothing during infancy is very different from all-day or prolonged toddler use.

The longer a pacifier stays in the mouth — especially beyond age 2 — the higher the risk for structural changes in the developing face and airway.

As airway-focused providers, we’re not here to shame parents. Parenting is hard. Pacifiers can absolutely serve a purpose. But Myomunchee is a much better choice for your little one!

Healthy facial growth depends on:
✔ nasal breathing
✔ proper tongue posture
✔ chewing development
✔ lips closed at rest

Small habits early in life can shape growth for years to come.
