Abstract: A pacifier thermometer includes a thermometer that is removable from a base portion, which includes a nipple, to allow thorough cleaning of the base portion. The thermometer includes a flexible conductor that has a thermistor at its end, and the thermistor rests on the nipple when assembled. In a second embodiment, the nipple includes a metal sensor that is molded into the silicone nipple and provides a hole for removably receiving the thermistor.
