A member asked:

My 4 yrs son takes pacifoer at night his front upper teeth seem to have raised like they have been pushed outwards will his adult teeth be normal ?

Pacifier: Using pacifier regularly can sometimes cause dental problems that may need dental braces when he is a teenager to make sure his adult teeth are all aligned properly.
