At what age...

Should kids stop using a dummy/pacifier?

Is 2 & a half years of age too old?

No. Limited use of a pacifier is perfectly okay right up to age 4. Any use past age 4 could affect the childs teeth.

@4meAndyou reckon it won't have an affect on teeth from the age of 2?

@BondGirl84 I googled it, and the prevailing dental school of thought is that you can let them suck on their paci up to age 4 without harm.

@4meAndyou yea it's 'thought' my point was that some parents reply on it to keep kids quiet or to delay weening kids off it or yes it may cos harm on teeth in long run...
