Sammons Preston Rubber Massage Brush on Amazon
These are “old school” oral motor infant teething, gum massagers, oral sensory tools. These are not made for babies that already have teeth! They can and will bite through this fairly easily with teeth!
It is a good item for babies who don’t have teeth yet, and who are needing some massage on their gums to help them feel better while they are trying to get their teeth to push through!
It is also a good oral sensory tool for de-sensitizing or for stimulating an infants mouth to help with feeding strategies.
