TalkTools OPT is used in SLT therapy to address speech & feeding difficulties by focusing on the muscles & movements involved in oral motor function

Talk Tools | Oral Placement Therapy (OPT) is a specialized therapeutic approach used in speech and language therapy to address speech and feeding difficulties by focusing on the muscles and movements involved in oral motor function. It aims to enhance the coordination, strength, and flexibility of the lips, tongue, jaw, and related structures to improve speech clarity and feeding skills in individuals with various speech and motor disorders. OPT involves a range of exercises and activities tailored to the individual's needs, targeting specific oral structures and functions. For example, exercises may involve using a chewy tube to strengthen lip muscles for improved lip closure, or a straw hierarchy to enhance tongue control and coordination. OPT aims to improve speech clarity and feeding skills by building muscle strength, coordination, and sensory awareness in the oral cavity, making it particularly beneficial for clients with articulation disorders, apraxia of speech, dysphagia, sensory-motor issues, and other related challenges.
