Product Information

To use a dummy safely and to minimise any dummy risks, there are a few steps to take. Don't tie the newborn dummy to your baby with strings or ribbons which could get tangled around your baby, and never dip it in sugar or foods of any kind. Limiting the hours of daily use and early weaning from a dummy can help prevent misaligned teeth. 5,6 Weaning a baby from a dummy can begin as early as 6 months. 7 Each child’s mouth and teeth develop differently. The use of dummies for children older than 24 months should be a decision made by each parent, based on consultation with a medical or dental healthcare provider. At the latest, weaning should start by 36 months 6,7 as recommended by pediatric dentists.

Make sure you sterilise your baby's dummy regularly, especially if it gets dropped when out and about. You can do this using a bottle steriliser, a microwave steriliser or by boiling the dummy to remove any contaminants. Some are dishwasher safe too. Make sure to let it completely cool before giving it to your baby.

With a self luminescent dummy you get a dummy that is perfect for midday naps and night time sleep. The dummy glows up, so both you, your child and daycare workers can find it if it gets lost in the dark. The light up effect makes it easier to find, as well as acting comforting for your child in an otherwise dark room. For the many children that sleep with night lights, the self luminescent dummy can replace or compliment it well. Ventilation holes – To prevent suffocation, it's essential for your baby's dummy to have two or more ventilation holes on the shield. Should you use a dummy for breastfed babies? Is it safe?No, the limited and responsible use of a dummy should not cause problems with misaligned teeth. Dummy use should be limited to less than six hours per day. 5 Choose a dummy shape that supports oral development, usually signalled by the word ‘orthodontic’. According to the Lullaby Trust, the use of a dummy during sleep can help prevent SIDS, so it's definitely okay to offer your baby a dummy while they sleep at night.

MAM's range of dummies offers both latex and silicone, which both have substantial benefits as soother materials. Silicone does not age, has no taste and is slightly harder than latex. Latex is the more bite resistant of the two, with silicone, which although bite-resistant must be thrown away as soon as the first bite marks appear. If you think your baby may need a soother material that is more bite-resistant then maybe latex would be the better choice for you! Latex is also a naturally grown product, giving it pure and natural qualities which many parents value. The MAM 0+/ 2-6+ Soothers are ideal up to the age of 6 months as they offer a smaller teat and shield for younger babies. The MAM 6+ Soothers are suitable from 6 months of age until one year as they provide a larger teat and shield than the 0+/ 2-6+ range but a smaller teat than MAM's 12+/ 16+ soother range. The MAM 12+/ 16+ Soothers being the largest of the MAM teats are ideal for older babies to use from 1 year of age until soother use stops. Helps exercise the lips, tongue and facial muscles, promoting healthy development of both teeth and jaws. If your baby uses a dummy all day, it can be harder for them to communicate with you or begin to make sounds
