Tongue LifteR Used by clinician to place the tongue in the correct position to produce the “R” sound. The contoured cradle fully supports and lifts the tongue and the angled handle provides optimal lift and control. The lifter has proved easier to use and more accurate than a tongue depressor. Children will feel the correct placement and hear the correct sound. One lifter per child recommended. Clean with soap and water. FDA-approved materials and colors. Not made with natural rubber latex.
