A pacifier is a rubber, plastic, or silicone nipple substitute given to an infant and toddler to suckle on between feedings to quiet their distress by satisfying the need to suck when they do not need to eat. Pacifiers normally have three parts: an elongated teat, a handle, and a mouth shield that prevents the child from swallowing or choking on it.

Chupeta, chucha, bico ou pipo é um mamilo de silicone, borracha ou plástico dado a um bebé para que o chuche. A generalidade das chupetas são constituídas por uma tetina, uma base para a boca e uma pega. A base e a pega têm uma dimensão que impede que a criança sufoque ou engula a chupeta.
