  • Ark Dog Tip for Z-Vibe

    Introducing ARK's Dog Tip for the Z-Vibe® - the ultimate tool for sensory oral motor therapy! This friendly pup's face immediately captures attention, improves focus, and encourages children to participate in therapy. With a variety of shapes and textures, this tip provides sensory input both inside and around the mouth. The textured ears can even be used as spoons to overcome texture aversion. Plus, the bite blocks on the back of the tips help with jaw grading and stability. But that's not all! ARK's Dog Tip is also great for biting/chewing skills, movement coordination, discrimination, and play therapy. It's a charming addition to any treatment plan that kids will love incorporating into their speech and feeding sessions.

    Specific ways to use ARK's Dog Tip for the Z-Vibe®:
    • Allow hesitant or orally defensive children to explore the sensations on their hands and arms before gradually introducing them to oral stimulation.
    • Use the different textured ears - one smooth, one bumpy - as spoons to introduce texture to puréed foods and transition to regular food.
    • During mealtimes and feeding therapy, use Mr. Dog to reduce food anxiety and normalize sensitivities.
    • Practice jaw grading and stability by having the child bite various parts of Mr. Dog - ears, side of the face, bite block - to gauge how far they should open their mouth.
