Dummy recommendations similar to a nipple sheild

Hello,

My 7 week old is breastfed on a nipple sheild (won't latch without one and we're waiting to see a breastfeeding specialist to see if they can help us transition to just boob/nipple).

Our little boy feeds very well, however at the end of a feed he starts to use the nipple sheild as a dummy (which isn't very comfortable or practical for me).

We're currently using MAM dummies which he will take but not for long.

Just looking for any recommendations for dummies that feel similar to a nipple sheild to see if he will prefer it.

Thank you
