Product information "ARK's Flower Chew Necklace"
ARK's Flower Chew Necklace is budding with possibilities!
This fun floral shape is a robust chew necklace for anyone who needs to chew. Each pendant measures about 5cm at the widest part and 2,5cm in thickness - a great option for chewing with your front teeth (for more slender options that reach the back molars, click here). Because this is a more robust shape, it's also a good option for tougher chewers. Use it as a safe alternative to chewing on pencils, shirts, fingers, etc. and to help calm, focus, and self-regulate.
Like all ARK chewelry, it's made in USA and is available in 3 color-coded toughness levels:
- Standard - This is the softest level, recommended for mild chewers (those who do not chew through anything).
- XT / Medium Firm - This is the middle level, which we call XT ("Xtra Tough"). It's firmer, but still fairly chewy, recommended for moderate chewers.
- XXT / Very Firm - This is the toughest level, which we call XXT ("Xtra Xtra Tough"). It still has some “chewability” to it, but it’s fairly rigid / pretty firm. No chew tool is indestructible, but this is usually the longest lasting level for avid chewers.
Please note: because it has a more robust shape, each level of the Flower will feel tougher than the same toughness level in one of our more slender shapes. So for example, if you like the Krypto-Bite® in the middle XT level, you may want to "size down" a toughness level and order the Flower in standard.
- Medical grade, FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex.
Caution: This product is not a toy. The clasp and cord are not intended for chewing. Contains small parts that may pose a choking hazard - direct supervision required. Recommended for ages 5 years and up. Although these chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Wear/tear may be expected given the nature of the intended use. How long they last is typically equal to the amount and intensity of the chewing, as well as other variables (such as jaw strength, stress/anxiety levels, if other sensory strategies are in place, etc.). While for some people a chew tool will last forever, for others with heavy/aggressive oral needs, they may go through it very quickly. Please supervise at all times, regularly inspect the chew, and replace if necessary if the item shows signs of wear and tear.

ARK's Bite Blocks for Jaw Grading & Stability
€28.95*
ARK’s Jaw Grading Bite Blocks are a great complement to any oral motor tool box. Specially designed to work on jaw grading and stability, each arm has a different thickness to practice various jaw heights:The orange arms are 3mm and 6mm thickThe magenta arms are .7mm and 1cm thick The teal arms are 1,3cm and 1,5cm thick What is jaw grading and stability? Jaw grading is the ability to have controlled movements of the jaw to various jaw heights needed for speech and feeding skills. For example, note the difference in your jaw when saying “eee” vs “ahhh”. Or, imagine biting into a cracker vs a sandwich/burger. Your jaw has to open to different heights to accommodate those different sounds and foods. Jaw stability is the strength, coordination, and endurance needed to do so without the jaw sliding forward and/or sideways. Each Bite Block set comes with instructions including four exercises to help work on these skills. These Bite Blocks are firm for good resistance during jaw exercises, but not 100% rigid to be gentle on the teeth (for softer options to work on chewing skills, see the Grabber and/or Y-Chew). Each arm also has gentle sensory bumps to grip the teeth.medical grade, FDA & CE compliantNo BPA, PVC, lead, phthalates, or latexEach block measures 18,4cm long in total, with each "arm" measuring about 7,4cm long and 1,3cm wide. Dishwasher-safeSold in a set (1 orange, 1 magenta, and 1 teal)CAUTION: this therapeutic tool should be used under adult supervision at all times.
Natural Rubber Tube
From
€5.95*
Natural rubber tube from Stomax (Stöhrmann)This rubber offers an interesting way to explore the mouth or to generate sensory stimuli for the hands and gripping. Training with the chewing tube is also a classic among the speech therapy tools for myofunctional therapy. Chewing on the tube trains chewing and biting functions and supports jaw development. Logical recommendation:Order 1m of tube, cut to size OR tie a knot and offer it to your child (see demo video in the image preview).
Example of use for slightly older children or adults: Put the ends of your chewing tube together, press firmly around 2cm behind the ends and let your patients chew on it - the ends of the chewing tube may already be sucking onto the edges of the tongue - ideal for training the lateralization of the tongue. Clean the tube by boiling it for 1-2 minutes or washing it with mild soap. Then let it dry and do not seal it airtight immediately. Price per 1m = 5.95 euros Dimension: 5.0 x 2.5mmCAUTION: The natural rubber hose from Stomax is NOT a toy and should ALWAYS be offered to babies and small children under the supervision of parents. Replace the hose if there are signs of wear or tear.

ARK's Button Tips
€13.95*
ARK's Button Tips are a fun and engaging way to work on lip closure and lip strength - fundamental skills needed for proper speech and feeding development.They're exactly the same as the proButton set, but fashioned into tip attachments for the Z-Vibe® or for the Z-Grabber (sold separately).
Speech therapists have been doing a "button pull" lip closure activity with their clients since the 1970s by tying string through buttons. ARK's Button Tip set offers a safer, professional upgrade of that classic oral motor exercise - no more small parts or thin string to worry about! The Button Tips are sold in a set of 2 yellow tips (the smallest sizes) OR a set of 2 teal ones (the largest sizes). The yellow buttons are 1,26cm and 1,52cm in diameter (labeled 1 and 2, respectively). The teal buttons are 1,78cm and 2cm in diameter (labeled 3 and 4, respectively).How to use the Button Tips: Starting with the largest button that comfortably fits in the individual's mouth, place the "button" inside the lips (in front of the teeth). Have the individual close their lips around the button while you pull and do a gentle "tug and pull" motion for resistance. Eventually transition to the smaller diameter buttons as the individual progresses.
Working on lip closure can help improve feeding skills, drinking skills, saliva control, speech sound production, and more.Information about the productMade in the USA, medical grade, FDA compliantNo BPA, PVC, lead, phthalates, or latex Each tip measures about 6,5cm long
Each "button" has a different diameter Dishwasher-safeTo be used with any Z-Vibe® or Z-Grabber® (sold separately)Sold in a 2 pack (two yellow or two teal)Patent pendingCAUTION: This therapeutic tool should be used under adult supervision at all times.

€21.95*
€24.95*
(12.02% saved)
ARK's Cip-Kup™ makes drinking easier for beginners and/or individuals with oral motor difficulties.It features a unique valve that controls the direction of fluid - liquid flows up into the straw, but does not flow back down. Simply squeeze the bottle until fluid reaches the top of the straw and release. Fluid will stay at the top of the straw, thereby decreasing the effort required to drink. A full straw also reduces the air ingested, and so users experience less coughing and choking while consuming more fluids. Highly recommended for individuals who tend to aspirate or have difficulties generating and maintaining suction (a weak suck).Kit includes: 1 flexible bottle with a twist-on cap10 standard drinking straws, an 8-inch tubing straw (a reusable, chewable, durable alternative to straws)1 select-flow valve (can be trimmed to increase the flow and further decrease the effort required to drink)one ¾" yellow Lip Blok (discourages biting on the straw or inserting it too far into the mouth).FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latexBottle measures approximately 5 x 6,3 x 15,2 cm and holds 236ml Dishwasher-safeNot recommended for carbonated beveragesRecommended for thin liquids (water, milk, juice without pulp, etc).Compatible with most standard 0,63cm diameter straws
