Textured Bite Tube

ARK’s Bite Tube is hollow with a different diameter and varying textures on each end. It has bumps on one end and ribs on the other for sensory input can safely be used for anyone who needs to chew or as an oral motor tool to work on jaw strength and stability.

The tube-like extension is perfect for individuals who want their chew tool to “collapse” more, whether as a sensory chew or in feeding therapy.  As an oral motor tool, use the Bite Tube to practice biting and chewing skills without the risk of choking, to build jaw strength and stability, and to exercise the mouth muscles. Put puréed foods inside the hollow tube for functional biting and chewing practice – when the individual bites down, they will be rewarded with a taste of food. The two different diameters target varying jaw heights and are a great first step for individuals with very limited jaw strength. 

Each chew measures about 12.5cm long and is available in the following toughness levels:

• Standard – This is the softest level, recommended for mild chewing or individuals with very limited jaw strength 
• Medium Firm – This is the middle level which is firmer, but still fairly chewy 
• Very Firm – This is the toughest level and provides the most resistance and feedback to the jaw
