Ark Therapeutic Handheld Oral Motor Y-Chew- Red

ARK's Y-Chew® is an oral motor chew tool with 3 extensions to chew on.  Each "arm" of the Y shape features a different texture: one smooth, one ribbed, and one with gentle bumps for a varying sensory experience.  

Use ARK's Y-Chew as an oral fidget for sensory seekers who crave chewing, or for anyone who needs to chew for any reason (as a safe alternative to biting your nails or grinding your teeth, as way for individuals fed via g-tube to still be able to chew on something orally, and so forth). The Y-Chew is also a staple oral motor / feeding therapy tool.   Use it to practice biting/chewing skills without the risk of choking, or to work on jaw strength and stability, or to help decrease oral sensitivities / food aversions.  For individuals with low oral tone / limited jaw strength, start with the soft one and graduate to the harder one to gradually build oral strength.  ARK's Y-Chew is a very simple yet versatile tool with many different uses.

• 3 different 'arms' to chew on - all long enough to reach the back molars

• Ribs and bumps provide added sensory input

• Available in 3 color-coded toughness levels

• All made in the USA

**Only available in soft/standard, in color red**

• Soft / Standard - recommended for mild chewing, individuals with low oral tone, or individuals with limited jaw strength just learning to bite and chew.  These are the softest ones with the most “squishiness” and “give” to them.
