LIP GYM™ is Talk Tools' idea for hierarchical lip strength exercises, preparing them for a strong closure. It will be useful wherever we are dealing with a weakening of the tension in the orofacial sphere, which is characterized by an open mouth, hyperflexibility of the chewing muscles, and a low tongue placement. The set includes 4 double barbells of different weights, marked with colors. It includes instructions from Sara Rosenfeld Johnson, the doyen of Talk Tools, based on the inspiration of speech therapist Jennifer Occhipini Tonelli.

ARK's ProBarbell™ Set is a fun and engaging way to practice lip closing and strengthening, essential skills needed for proper speech and feeding development. 

A special brush with short bristles to remove bacteria from the tongue,

it is best to use the tongue brush together with the gel.

STEREOGNOSTIC SHAPES - LETTERS

- metal molds in the shape of letters for teaching oral stereognosis or playing with letters using salt masses or other plastic materials.

The highly-functional TalkTools® Jaw Grading Bite Blocks promote symmetrical jaw strength, jaw stability, and work on jaw grading through varying jaw heights.

Jaw exerciser 

consists of two numbers of tools intended for the treatment of jaw joint dysfunction and jaw strength and stabilization.

The LIPER™ DEVICE

The tongue exercises encourage tongue motion and posture, tongue strengthening for adults (users who can be interactive as from approx.. 2.5 years old) and as part of the exercises, practitioners/therapists are using it to stretch the tongue after frenotomy avoiding reattachment of the tongue.

FREEZING SPRAY

is a funtastic way to stimulate muscles and nerves of the body with low temperature. Use it together with ORAL SWABS or TOOTHETTE to sensory awareness exercises.

The set for the treatment of apraxia

includes blocks, tubes and shapes for the exercises of vowels, opening of the lips and mandible as well as labial consonants for patients with deficits in planning articulation movements.

These bite blocks can be used with other APRAXIA tools: APRAXIA SHAPES -for bilabial phoneme and APRAXIA TUBES-for children who need extra sensory input when forming lip rounding for /oo/ (boo!) and /oh/ (go!) sounds.

The set of progressive jaw closure tubes contains six firm, reusable bite tubes.

When used in a graduated program the tubes each teach volitional jaw closure and lip rounding, which are beneficial for straw drinking and speech development.

SPEECH BUDDY RABBIT

- is a perfect tool for evoking/correcting r sound, but most Speech-Language Pathologist use it to lift and move the tongue backward, what is very helpful in maintaining proper tongue posture.

SPEECH BUDDIES set of 5

are handheld helpers that allow children to feel the correct tongue placement required to produce problem sounds. This tactile information within the mouth is often just what kids need to achieve learning breakthroughs.

The Oral Nasal Listener™

is a unique, latex-free tool that provides high-quality auditory feedback for the client (child or adult) during speech evaluation and therapy.

Oral stereognosis (form or shape recognition in the oral cavity) can be utilized to assess oral perceptual abilities. This assessment can be beneficial in planning as well as predicting the future outcome of any treatment modality in the oral cavity.

The highly-functional Jaw Grading Bite Blocks promote symmetrical jaw strength, jaw stability. Work on jaw grading through varying jaw heights.

Check out how easy yet effective is using Apraxia Bilabial Shapes to teach producing m, b, p sounds!

APRAXIA TUBES

are designed for exercises of improving awareness of lip and jaw grading, and for increasing the lip closure.

ORONAVIGATOR

This oral motor tool was specifically designed to develop lateral tongue movements and tongue tip elevation.
