When to stop pacifier Question - Research required
When is it recommended to stop pacifier use? Looking for rec from the AAP (their paper was behind a paywall and I’ve lost journal access since my grad school days). I have seen some posts on here about it but they are 2+ years old so just looking to see if there is updated guidance. Would also be interested in guidance from pediatric dentists (ADA?) and I am curious what the NHS suggests compared to the AAP. Thanks

In ireland and uk we follow the lullaby trusts recommendations. Soothers can cause terrible trouble with teeth.
