Any help getting rid of dummy?

@Katie yeah during the day he's mostly off unless teething or as you say a bump. But am afraid cause he's chewing through them, he pierced through 5 of them already :(
We haven’t taken it away completely but she doesn’t have it anymore at night time for sleep, and we just waited for a day where she was v tired and went cold turkey that night x
There is a super nanny episode I randomly watched today where she helps two twins loose the dummy - with a dummy fairy. They were 4 though so might be quite different.
@Hollie yeah, appreciate all the tips I saw online were for older kids. My son doesn't even get when I tell him to wait 30s for the food to get from counter to his chair so I kinda doubt he will manage anything as abstract lol
We still have it, its a god send for night sleep and nap to be honest, they are kept up in her room so they are only for sleep. I imagined around this age I would be looking rid of them but when she wakes up it can get her back to sleep almost instantly so Im too scared 🙈
Our daughter had one from 5 weeks old and we took it away when she turned 2. She was gifted a teddy with music white noise and mood lighting which helped as some sort of substitute. It was an absolute nightmare for about 2 months as she was heavily reliant on it & there has been lots of crying and tantrums but now she has forgotten about it. I think just be prepared to got through the fire and remember the end goal.
I won’t be taking my little ones away for sleep for a while but during the day I just hide it away because for her it’s out of sight out of mind so she doesn’t need it during the day unless she’s had a bump or something
