TalkTools® Sensi® Textured Side Spoon Tip
Clients with reduced oral sensory awareness or difficulty achieving lip closure during spoon feeding may benefit from structured tactile input during feeding therapy. The TalkTools® Sensi® Textured Side Spoon Tip attaches to the TalkTools Sensi or Sensi Rechargeable to deliver sensory stimulation to both corners of the mouth during spoon-feeding activities. Its textured design can be incorporated into clinician-directed feeding and oral sensory programs targeting lip closure, oral awareness, and spoon-feeding preparation.
