Baby pacifier with or without palate support?

The most important thing when choosing a pacifier is matching it to your baby's age and roof-of-mouth fit. General pediatric opinion leans toward orthodontic (palate-supporting) pacifiers being less harmful to roof and tooth development. Palate-supporting pacifiers fit better against your baby's roof and support the tongue in its natural position. Pacifiers without palate support might be preferred for very young babies, especially in the newborn period. If your baby is under 6 months, you might start with one without palate support; if older, one with palate support is better. Best practice: watch your baby's response—whichever style they hold more comfortably and suck on is the one to use. How old is your baby?
