ARK's Textured Grabber® and Textured Grabber XT® sold together for a savings! The purple Grabber® is made out of a soft, chewy material. The green Grabber XT® is made out of "Xtra Tough" material that is still chewy and resilient, but recommended for individuals who exert more jaw pressure. Use this sampler pack to see which resiliency suits your needs. Or, start with the soft one and graduate to the harder one to gradually build oral strength. Both options feature 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 decrease oral defensiveness/aversions, and transition individuals with sensory issues from puréeed to textured foods. They can also be used to build oral strength, 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 help decrease oral defensiveness and food aversions, to practice biting/chewing without the risk of choking, to satisfy the urge to chew for individuals who are fed through a g-tube. Made in the USA! They're constructed out of medical grade, FDA compliant materials that contain NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex. They're also molded out of one solid piece of material with no holes or crevices that could harbor saliva or bacteria. Caution: although these chew tools are made out of sturdy, medical grade materials, they are not indestructible. Some individuals (particularly those with heavy oral needs and aggressive biting/chewing) may be able to damage the tools. Please supervise at all times and replace if necessary when the item shows signs of wear and tear
