Description
The The NUK First Choice+ Silicone Teat is designed to make bottle feeding feel as natural and familiar as possible—supporting seamless switching between breast and bottle. Based on over 60 years of research and development, this teat is modelled on a mother’s nipple during breastfeeding, helping promote healthy oral development and natural sucking movements. The anatomical shape fits perfectly in your baby’s mouth, leaving enough space for the tongue and jaw to move freely, just like during breastfeeding.
Breastfeeding isn’t just about nutrition—it’s nature’s way of helping babies develop strong oral muscles and coordinated jaw movement, which later supports chewing, swallowing, and speaking. Inspired by this natural process, the NUK orthodontic teat was developed to mimic the changing shape of the mother’s nipple during feeding. This unique asymmetrical shape—created by medical experts Prof. Dr. Dr. Balters and Dr. med. dent. Müller—ensures optimal contact with the palate and encourages healthy coordination between the lips, tongue, and jaw.
To further support natural development and digestion, the teat features an offset hole. This design ensures the milk mixes with saliva before swallowing, making it easier to digest and gentler on your baby’s tummy. Combined with the improved NUK Anti-Colic Air System, which balances bottle pressure and prevents vacuum formation, this teat helps reduce colic, gas, and discomfort during and after feeding. The teat’s structure also resists collapsing mid-feed, providing a consistent, uninterrupted flow.
Made from high-quality BPA-free silicone, this teat is odourless, tasteless, and heat-resistant. Its surface includes a specially designed soft zone that conforms to the roof of the baby’s mouth for a more natural and soothing feel. Silicone teats are durable and hygienic, making them ideal for everyday use. However, like all teats, they should be checked regularly for wear and replaced every 1–2 months. If your baby develops teeth, consider monitoring for bite marks, and replace the teat at the first sign of damage.
For families who prefer natural materials, NUK also offers latex teats, made from the rubber milk of the rubber tree. Latex is soft, elastic, and ideal for babies with teeth, though it ages faster and requires more frequent replacement. Whether you choose latex or silicone, NUK ensures each teat fits naturally into your baby’s mouth and supports safe and healthy feeding.
The NUK First Choice+ Silicone Teat fits all NUK First Choice Bottles and NUK Breast Milk Containers, offering a flexible, coordinated system for expressing, storing, and feeding. It’s available in multiple flow rates—Small (S) for breast milk and water, Medium (M) for formula, and Large (L) for thicker liquids—tailored to your baby’s needs. Size 1 is for 0–6 months, while Size 2 is suited for 6–18 months, so you always have the right fit at every stage.
Clinically proven to support combined feeding*, this teat is especially well accepted by babies who alternate between breast and bottle. With its orthodontic shape, anti-colic system, and natural feel, the NUK First Choice+ Silicone Teat remains one of the most trusted and baby-friendly feeding solutions for growing families.
