Nipples

NIPPLES provide the flexibility to choose a ready-for-use nipple and ring to match each infant's sucking strength or need. <B>Infant</B> (latex-free)—for infants with developed sucking strength. <B>Premature</B> (latex-free)—for preterm infants with less developed sucking strength. <B>Orthodontic</B> (contains latex)—for newborn infants, to stimulate oral exercise while feeding. <strong>Slow Flow</strong> (latex-free)-to support the underdeveloped "suck-swallow-breath" coordination of preterm infants. Provides a more controlled flow rate vs faster-flow nipples for increased physiological stability and a more efficient sucking pattern.<sup>1</sup>
