ARK's Textured Grabber® XT is an "Xtra Tough" oral motor chew tool.  It's firm, yet still chewy and resilient - perfect for moderate chewers and/or those who prefer more resistance as they chew.  The Textured Grabber® XT features three different surfaces to chew on: one smooth, one with circular bumps, and one with rectangular bumps. These textures simulate the feel of actual food for realistic non-food chewing practice. They also add extra tactile sensation to the lips, cheeks, gums, and tongue to help desensitize the mouth, decrease oral defensiveness/aversions, and/or transition individuals with sensory issues from puréed to textured foods.

 

The Grabber® can also be used:

  • As an oral fidget for sensory seekers craving stimulation and proprioceptive input

     

  • As a safe alternative to chewing on hands, knuckles, shirts, pencils, etc.

     

  • As an alternative to tooth-grinding and/or thumb-sucking

     

  • To exercise the lips, tongue, cheeks, and especially the jaw

     

  • To allow the mouth to learn and grow strong through oral exploration

     

  • To practice biting/chewing without the risk of choking

     

  • To build oral strength, mobility, and control

     

  • To satisfy the urge to chew for individuals who are fed through a g-tube

     

ARK manufactures these chew tools in the USA. They're medical grade, FDA compliant, and contain no lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex.  Measures approximately 5 inches lengthwise, just under 2 across the loop, and half an inch thick.

Caution: although these chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Some individuals (particularly those with heavy oral needs and aggressive biting/chewing) may be able to damage the tools. How long each tool lasts depends on the oral sensory needs of the child, whether or not they are seeing an occupational therapist if needed, as well as many other variables in his/her life.  Please supervise at all times and replace if necessary when the item shows signs of wear and tear.  For tougher a version, check out ARK's Textured Grabber XXT.  For the toughest chew tool overall, see ARK's Y-Chew XXT.
