Safety – The Flat Textured Spoon is a feeding spoon, not a chew tool. Although these feeding spoons are made from sturdy medical-grade materials, they are not indestructible. Some individuals (particularly those with heavier oral needs and those who bite or chew more aggressively) may be able to damage the feeding spoon. Please supervise at all times and replace if necessary, when the item shows signs of wear and tear.
