Ideal for Paediatric Patients
The Youth Spoon is ideal for paediatric patients due to its built-up handles and plastisol coating for protecting the teeth and lips when biting down. The ergonomic design ensures a secure and comfortable grip, even when the spoon is wet, enhancing the overall feeding experience for children who may struggle with fine motor skills. However, while the Youth Spoon is highly beneficial for individuals with biting reflexes, we do not recommend this design for children with heavy biting reflexes.
