WHAT ARE TONGUE LATERALIZATION TOOLS? Tongue lateralization tools are therapy aids used to stimulate and strengthen the tongue’s ability to move laterally (side to side). ✔ Speech clarity (difficulty pronouncing sounds like /l/, /r/, /t/, /d/, /s/, and /z/) ✔ Feeding and swallowing issues (difficulty chewing, managing food, or moving it inside the mouth) ✔ Oral motor delays (weakened tongue muscles or poor coordination) ✔ Neurological conditions (such as cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, or stroke recovery) ✔ Tongue-tie recovery (helping strengthen tongue movements after a frenectomy) www.speechgears.com
WHY IS TONGUE LATERALIZATION IMPORTANT? Tongue lateralization is an essential function that allows us to: ✔ Chew food effectively – Moving food around the mouth and positioning it correctly for swallowing. ✔ Swallow safely – Ensuring food is pushed to the correct areas in the mouth without choking. ✔ Speak clearly – Producing accurate articulation of speech sounds. ✔ Reduce oral motor difficulties – Supporting better tongue stability and movement. www.speechgears.com
