Pacifier to introduce or not?

FTM here. Should we introduce pacifier to newborn? What are the pros and cons? He is a week old and has started crying every hour. He seems to be hungry as he moves his mouth but we are thinking that he is drinking a bit too much and wonder if pacifier will help to soothe him? But yet not sure if it’s a good time to introduce and whether he will be too dependent on it

i intro my LO pacifier when he is abit fussy and want to soothe himself. But he doesnt like it, he even gags after awhile of sucking into it and spits it out. I only give him to help him sleep and after we wont give it even in the morning :)
