Natural rubber latex can in rare cases smear off to the shield, so it is important to scald in plenty of water and not too many pacifiers at a time. Pacifiers are not meant to be boiled and are therefore destroyed by the high heat.
Instead, follow the instructions above, and you are sure to kill the bacteria without compromising the durability of the pacifier. Premature infants and babies up to 3 months need more thorough and frequent cleaning than babies over 3 months of age.
Therefore, the pacifier must be cleaned more often when the child is under 3 months. We always recommend that pacifiers are scalded at least once a day. Since natural rubber latex is a natural material it undergoes a natural aging process, which can be influenced by external forces such as UV light. We do not recommend using sterilizing solution for latex pacifiers, as the solution can damage the latex if the pacifier is left in for longer than recommended.
Do not clean the pacifiers in a dishwasher. The cleaning agents will damage the material both latex and silicone and it can become brittle. Furthermore, most dishwashers do not reach temperatures high enough to sufficiently sterilize the pacifiers. In most microwaves the pacifiers must be heated for a maximum of 60 seconds at max. Most dummies are equipped with a valve. If the nipple has a valve, be sure to squeeze excess water out of the nipple after the dummies have cooled off.

This method is faster and avoids excess water inside the nipple. Following the above instructions is sure to kill any bacteria on the dummies, without compromising the durability of the natural rubber latex nipple.
Part of good pacifier hygiene is frequent cleaning. The younger the child, the more important it is to maintain good pacifier hygiene. Premature infants and babies younger than three 3 months need more thorough and frequent cleaning.
The dummies should not be cleaned in the dishwasher as this may damage the material. Sterilize the pacifier by putting it in boiling water for 5 minutes before the first use. Make sure it's completely cooled down before giving it to your baby.
Keep it clean by washing it with hot, soapy water after each use. Pacifiers should not be used for more than 3 months. If you don't know how old they are, it really isn't worth the risk. They might dry out, fall off and choke your baby. In the past five years, 12 pacifiers have been recalled.
