ARK proButton
ARK's proButton™ Set is a fun and engaging way to work on lip closure and lip strength, fundamental skills needed for proper speech and feeding development.
Speech therapists have been doing a "button pull" lip closure activity with their clients since the 1970s by tying string through buttons. ARK's proButton set offers a safer, professional upgrade of that classic oral motor exercise - no more small parts or thin string to worry about!
Each proButton™ set includes two double-sided handles for a total of four different "button" diameters. The yellow handle has buttons of .5" and .6" in diameter (labeled 1 and 2, respectively). The teal handle has buttons of .7" and .8" in diameter (labeled 3 and 4, respectively).
Starting with the largest button that comfortably fits in the individual's mouth, place the "button" inside the lips (in front of the teeth). Have the individual close their lips around the button while you pull and do a gentle "tug and pull" motion for resistance. Eventually transition to the smaller diameter buttons as the individual progresses. More detailed instructions are included.

Ark's Brick Stick
Made in the USA, ARK's Brick Stick® Textured Chew Necklace provides a safe, wearable, discrete, and cool solution for those who need to chew. Use this "chewelry" as an oral fidget (or even hand fidget) to help calm, soothe, and self-regulate during times of stress, to better focus during homework and other activities, for sensory oral motor input, and/or as a safe alternative to chewing/biting on fingers, knuckles, shirts, pencils, etc. The long shape means you can reach all the way to the back molars for adequate chewing, and two different textures are built-in for varied tactile input: large bumps on one side and small bumps on the other.
- XT = Medium (firmer, but still chewy), for mild to moderate chewing
Ark's Tetra-Bite
ARK's Tetra-Bite™ packs a lot of features into one cool chew tool. With 4 differently textured extensions to chew on, you'll never get bored. Rotate between circular bumps, zigzag bumps, ribs, and lines - a sensory seeker's dream. Each extension is long enough to reach the back molars for proprioceptive input to the jaw and masseter muscle.
Not just a chew, the Tetra-Bite™ also makes a great hand fidget! Put your pointer finger inside the hole and use your other hand to make it spin on your finger. Or, hold it in both hands by the circular extensions and twist to make it spin.
Made in the USA, it's a safe outlet for anyone who needs to chew, and an effective way to help calm, self-regulate, and focus.
- XT / Medium Firm- It's firm, but still fairly chewy, recommended for moderate chewers.
Ark Baby Tetra-Bite
ARK's Baby Tetra-Bite™ is designed to calm and soothe infants who are in the early stages of development. At approximately 5-6 months of age, babies start mouthing and chewing in order to strengthen their mouth muscles and exercise their lips, tongue, and jaw. This oral exploration prepares them to eat solid foods and to make speech sounds later on. The Baby Tetra-Bite™ provides a safe outlet for babies to develop these skills.
Babies can mouth and explore 4 different "arms" - each with a different texture for lots of varied sensory input. The two rectangular arms have ribs: one with horizontal ribs that wrap around the extension, and one with long ribs that run the length of the extension. The two rectangular arms have bumps: one with mild round bumps, and one with zigzag bumps that provide more input. With all these different shapes and textures, the Tetra-Bite™ helps introduce babies to new sensations orally, which helps prepare them for solid foods later on and also helps decrease and/or prevent oral sensitivities.
The Baby Tetra-Bite™ measures just under 5" across. Each extension measures just over 1" long and about .4" thick - perfect for reaching the back molars where we need to chew the most.
Ark Guitar
ARK's Guitar isn't your ordinary acoustic guitar - it's an "achewstic" guitar!

Like all ARK chews it's made in the USA!
- Soft (red or dark blue) - recommended for mild chewing. These are the softest ones with the most "squishiness" and "give" to them.
Ark Baby Guitar
ARK's Baby Guitar is a fun and functional way for babies and toddlers to mouth, chew, and soothe sore gums. The charming guitar shape is easy for little hands to hold, with a stem to reach the back molar area.

ARK Flat Textured Spoons (Single)
ARK's Flat Textured Spoons have a very thin profile - perfect for individuals who have limited lip control and/or difficulty removing food from the spoon. Use them to introduce texture to puréed foods like yogurt, applesauce, stage 1 baby foods, etc. They're textured on one side and smooth on the other. Present the spoon textured side facing up to stimulate the upper lip, or textured side down to stimulate the lower lip and tongue. Use the end with lines for mild input, or the end with bumps for more input. Or start with the lines and eventually progress to the bumps for increasing tactile input.
ARK proSpoon (smooth)
ARK's proSpoon™ was specially designed by feeding therapist Debbie Lowsky, MS, CCC-SLP to support easy feeding and food removal for young children. The size and shape of the spoon bowl are "just right" - big enough to hold an appropriate amount of food, but small enough to prevent the spoon from being overloaded with too much food.
It's a rigid spoon, but it does have slight flexibility to it so that it's gentle on the teeth (in case someone has a bite reflex and bites down on the spoon).
