The development of your baby’s mouth, jaw and teeth is a delicate process, which starts even before the first tooth starts to come through. Your child’s impulse to suck and the habits he or she develops in association with this will play a key role in shaping this process. Many parents are divided over the issue of soothers. So what should they do? Sucking is great for your baby.This is because it is an innate and vital reflex that helps the baby to take in food. Further more, sucking has a calming effect, encourages sleep and provides comfort in all kinds of difficult situations. Some babies simply need to suckle their mother’s breast to satisfy this need, but for many babies this is not enough.It was specifically for these babies that soothers were developed as a way of satisfying the need to suck in a controlled and safe manner.
However, studies in the field of orthodontic science have revealed that in practice, these soothers can have a detrimental effect on healthy teeth and jaw development. There can be no doubt that soothers are responsible for many teeth and jaw misalignments due to their prolonged and intensive use. In fact, even the daughter of Dr. Kai Hagemann suffered a jaw misalignment because she used her soother too intensively. It was this that prompted him to get together with us, Germany`s oldest manufacturer of soothers, to develop an orthodontic soother, which would take this problem into account more than conventional soothers do. Now, after 3 years of development work undertaken in conjunction a new generation of soothers has been born: the Miss Denti soother. Thanks to its innovative shape with patented wings, Miss Denti promotes healthier teeth and jaw development in your child than conventional soothers. We have collated the key information for you on these webpages and hope you will enjoy reading about and looking at this great new product.
