The Difrax Pinky dummy offers the baby an additional level of comfort: Caregivers can insert their little finger into the teat to exert a gentle pressure on the baby's palate. This has a calming effect and simultaneously stimulates the sucking reflex. The use of silicone in two different hardnesses for the shield and teat also contributes to a pleasant feeling. The shield adapts to the contours of the face and is equipped with large holes for air circulation as well as a cut-out for the nose.
Statement by the Jury
The Difrax Pinky dummy owes its particularly pleasant characteristics to its thoughtful shape and clever choice of material.
