Is this nipple for babies with cleft lip or palate?
Yes. The small size nipple is suitable for underweight babies with cleft lip or palate.
What material is the nipple made from?
The nipple is 100% silicone rubber; Material Type and Material Composition are listed as Silicone.
Does the nipple have a valve to prevent backflow?
Yes. When fitted inside the nipple, a backflow prevention valve prevents milk from flowing back into the bottle while the baby is sucking.

Made from 100% silicone rubber, the nipple is soft where baby needs it and firm where support is required. The breast-shaped profile and textured surface help mimic natural latch and encourage proper tongue and lip movement while feeding.
The included backflow valve prevents milk from flowing back into the bottle while baby is sucking, keeping milk available when the tongue presses the nipple. A vent valve forms an inverted triangle structure to prevent nipple collapse and maintain steady flow.
This small size is intended for underweight babies with cleft lip or palate, and for limited oral volume such as when using a Hotz-type plate. Use this nipple under the guidance of your pediatrician, especially during post-surgery or transition periods.
Choosing the right nipple matters for feeding success when baby has a cleft lip or palate.
- Talk to Your Pediatrician: Always confirm nipple size and timing with your pediatrician or cleft team who know your baby's specific needs.
- Assess Oral Volume: Small sizes suit limited oral cavities or low birth weight babies; your clinician can check fit during a feeding session.
- Consider Sucking Strength: If your baby has weak suck, a Y-cut plus a backflow valve can help milk flow with less effort.
- Post-Op and Transition: After surgery or when moving toward a regular nipple, follow your surgeon or pediatrician's timeline for safe transitions.
- Inspect and Replace: Check the nipple before each use for wear, and replace at first sign of damage or changes in texture.
Is this nipple safe for babies with cleft lip or palate?
Yes. This nipple was developed specifically for babies with cleft lip and palate under the supervision of Dr. Masaru Tatsuno, MD. Use it under your pediatrician's guidance.
How does the Y-cut help my baby feed?
The Y-cut is thicker on one side and thinner on the other, allowing the tongue and lips to compress the nipple and draw milk with less suction effort.
How should I clean and sterilize the nipple?
Follow the cleaning and sterilization guidance from your bottle manufacturer or pediatrician. Inspect the nipple before each use and replace if you see any wear.
Will this nipple fit my current bottles?
Compatibility can vary by bottle model. If you are unsure, contact our customer support with your bottle model and we will help confirm fit.
What are your shipping and return policies?
We ship from a US warehouse, and we offer free US shipping on orders over $100. We accept returns within 30 days, and human customer support is available to help with questions.
