Details
The Z-Vibe Mini Tip is smaller version of the popular Probe tip for use in those little mouths. Used with the Z-Vibe handle these tips can produce various sensory results. When installed in the hand piece the Z-Vibe® assembly is water resistant and can be safely sanitized.
Speech therapists have found it helpful to use all three surfaces for different sensory input to the musculature. Remember to use the option of using no vibration by turning the Z-Vibe handle off.
The tips are constructed of medical grade materials that are FDA approved and contain no latex or phthalates.
