When to stop the pacifier. Dr. Lisa Dana. Pacifiers are popular soothers for infants, but after age one, they can do more harm than good. I tell parents to get rid of the pacifier at 9 months of age. If they keep it after 9 months of age, they will probably have it until age 2 or 3.
Pacifier nipples do wear down with age and use, so check the binky thoroughly before placing it in your baby's mouth. Look for discoloration as well as holes, tears, and weak spots that could cause the nipple to break off when sucked, putting your baby at risk of choking. Some nipples also become sticky with age.
