Learn the physiological tongue rest position with the Mewing rings! You get 3 different levels of difficulty in your packwhite stands for the easiest versiongray is medium difficulty andblack stands for the highest difficulty level.How to use:It's best to start with the white ring, which you place in the middle of your tongue. Now place your tongue in the roof of your mouth and close your lips. There should be no contact between your teeth. As soon as you manage to press the mewing ring against the roof of your mouth for 10 minutes continuously, you can use the ring with the next difficulty level.LOGICANA recommendation: Use the Mewing Ring every other day for 5-15 minutes for best resultsThe saliva should be swallowed while wearing the ring - with the tongue in the palate you automatically create the necessary negative pressure - if you have difficulties with this, ask your therapist for advice. Clean the Mewing Ring under running water after each use and allow it to air dry before putting it back in the box. You can also boil the Mewing Ring once a week (2-3 minutes)Made in Germany from food-grade silicone and undergoes regular cleanliness tests. 100% BPA and PVC free. 1 year manufacturer's warranty - if your Mewing Ring breaks or cracks contrary to our expectations, contact us immediately and you will receive a new Mewing Ring. If you have misaligned teeth or jaws, you should seek advice from your therapist or doctor.Contents: practical tin with 3 ringsNot suitable for children under 14 years - risk of swallowing!

The depth of the hose in the water plays an important role in laxvoxing, as it determines the water resistance. The LAX VOX® tube holder fixes the LAX VOX® tube at your optimum height in the bottle and thus ensures that the tube does not accidentally slip too deep into the water. This is particularly important for children and neurological patients who are unable to keep a constant eye on the tube depth. The LAX VOX® tube holder is made of flexible foam and colour-coordinated with all our products. It can be easily stretched to allow the LAX VOX® hose to be inserted comfortably in the centre. The notch on the underside makes it easy to attach to a bottle neck with an internal diameter of at least 2.8 cm and a maximum external diameter of 4 cm. It is important that there is always a small gap through which the air can escape. If this is not the case, laxvoxing will be more strenuous. In this case, turn the tube holder upside down and use it without fixing it to the bottle. Here you can watch a video (german) and a flyer (engl.)

TalkTools’ original Spinner and Toothies is an excellent tool for diagnosing sensory-motor deficits, promoting awareness of the oral cavity, and reducing "fixing." It is commonly used by TalkTools therapists as a sensory activity prior to therapy when clients don’t tolerate tools in their mouth yet. As a diagnostic tool, it can reveal Hypersensitivity, Hyposensitivity and Tactile Defensiveness (among others), conditions that may interfere with oral placement, feeding and speech therapy. As a therapy tool, it can assist in improving responsiveness to sensory information on and within the oral cavity.Diagnostic and therapy tool for the sensory system Includes 1 Spinnner, 20 Toothies and TalkTools original instruction booklet2 AAA Batteries NOT included

This essential tool is used in the famous activity “Bite Block hierarchy.”Jaw Grading Bite Blocks promote symmetrical jaw strength, stability, and grading for clients with weak jaw musculature evidenced during speech sound production or feeding (i.e. reduced mobility, sliding, or jutting).As many OPT (Oral Placement Therapy) tools, it is used both to diagnose and treat. Excellent for use with Dysarthria, Apraxia and Dyspraxia.A TalkTools bestseller that promotes jaw strength, stability, and gradingIncludes two sets of six Bite Blocks and TalkTools original instruction bookletReusable, durable and easy to clean, Hard textured surfaceAlso available in a Sensory Friendly (purple) set

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.

Designed for those smaller mouths, ARK's Oral Motor proMini™ is a smaller version of our favorite Probe.It has a rectangular tip that is bumpy on one side, striated on the other, and smooth along the edges. These textured surfaces provide tactile input, awareness, and sensation. Use as an oral massage brush to stimulate the gums, palate, lips, cheek, and tongue by tapping, stroking, and applying gentle pressure. For individuals with oral sensitivities or aversions, start with the smooth sides, as they provide the least input. Then progress to the striated side, and eventually the bumpy side. You can also dip the proMini in foods for use as a "dipper spoon" in feeding therapy. This is an excellent tactic for beginning spoon-users and to introduce texture to puréed foods.ARK's proMini was specifically designed with safety in mind.
