In this episode, Hallie discusses her gold standards when it comes to the best pacifier and bottles for orofacial development. She goes on to discuss what to look for when choosing the right bottle and pacifier to aid in proper oral & facial development. Hallie highlights correct oral rest posture in infants and shares what that looks like: (1) mouth closed, (2) tongue resting on the palate and (3) nasal breathing; all should be present from birth!
Great information, especially when needing a simple way of explaining to parents why certain pacifiers or bottles might hinder orofacial and oral motor development!
I’m so glad you enjoyed this episode!
