Speech Bumps™
Positioned along the inside of the back teeth to provide tactile reference points for lateral tongue placement and bracing during speech practice.
Speech Pal™ is a custom-fit therapeutic tool designed to provide tactile cues for tongue placement during articulation practice. Patented Speech Bumps™ and targeted tactile features give the tongue points it can feel, helping guide it toward the desired placement while practicing difficult speech sounds.
Different speech sounds require different tongue positions. Speech Pal™ uses targeted tactile features to give the tongue sensory reference points it can actually feel during articulation practice.

Practice targeted speech sounds while using the tactile cues to help make tongue placement easier to find and repeat.
Instead of only telling the tongue where to go, Speech Pal™ gives it tactile reference points it can feel.
Speech Pal™ uses targeted tactile features the tongue can actually feel. Each cue is designed to provide a sensory reference for tongue placement during articulation practice.

Speech sounds depend on precise tongue movement. When placement is difficult to find, repeating the sound alone may not provide enough information about where the tongue should move.
Sounds such as /r/, /sh/, and /ch/ involve specific tongue shapes and movements inside the mouth.
Verbal directions can be hard to translate into a movement happening inside the mouth. Without a clear tactile reference, finding the same position again can be difficult.
Speech Pal™ adds tactile guidance inside the mouth, giving the tongue sensory reference points it can feel during articulation practice.
Instead of relying only on “Where should my tongue go?” Speech Pal™ adds “Here is something my tongue can feel.”
