Drooling Remediation Program | OPT-Based Saliva Control Intervention — TalkTools®

Drooling Remediation Program

The TalkTools Drooling Remediation Program takes a step-by-step Oral Placement Therapy (OPT) approach to drooling, addressing the underlying causes rather than treating drooling as a behavioral issue. The program targets key deficit areas including body posture, sensory awareness, lip closure, and saliva retraction through motivating, functional activities for both children and adults. Therapists and families can implement the program together, making it suited to clinic and home carry-over.

Therapy Goals

  • Improve body posture as a foundational component of saliva control
  • Increase oral sensory awareness to support automatic lip closure and saliva management
  • Develop active lip closure and lip seal to reduce anterior saliva loss
  • Build saliva retraction and swallowing automaticity through structured OPT activities
  • Provide functional practice for children and adults with drooling due to oral motor deficits
  • Addresses the root causes of drooling through Oral Placement Therapy rather than behavioral strategies
  • Includes all tools needed for a complete, multi-component drooling intervention program
  • Appropriate for children and adults across a wide range of diagnoses
  • Activities can be implemented by therapists and families for consistent home carry-over
  • All components constructed from clinical-grade materials
  • SLPs treating drooling in clients with neurological conditions, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, or autism spectrum disorder
  • Therapists implementing OPT-based drooling programs in clinic, school, or home settings
  • Families of children or adults with chronic drooling looking for a structured home program
  • Early intervention and school-based therapy programs
  • 1 x Drooling Program Manual
  • 1 x Bubble Kit
