Like all other ARK chews it comes in 3 color-coded toughness levels:Standard - This is the softest level, recommended for mild chewers (those who do not chew through anything).XT / Medium Firm - This is the middle level, which we call XT ("Xtra Tough"). It's firmer, but still fairly chewy, recommended for moderate chewers. XXT / Very Firm - This is the toughest level, which we call XXT ("Xtra Xtra Tough"). This is the toughest level. Choose your option from the menu above. Each Rainbow is sold individually. Color hues may vary slightly.Each Rainbow measures about 15,3cm wide, 7,6cm tall, 0,5cm thick including the texture, and 0,38cm thick not counting the texture.Please note: because of how thin this chew is, even in XXT this is not a long lasting option for moderate to avid chewing. For more robust chews, check out the Grabber or MEGA Brick Stick. Made in the USA Designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA by ARK Therapeutic. Medical grade, FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex.Caution: This product is not a toy. The clasp and cord are not intended for chewing. Contains small parts that may pose a choking hazard - direct supervision required. Recommended for ages 5 years and up. Although these chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Wear/tear may be expected given the nature of the intended use. How long they last is typically equal to the amount and intensity of the chewing, as well as other variables (such as jaw strength, stress/anxiety levels, if other sensory strategies are in place, etc.). While for some people a chew tool will last forever, for others with heavy/aggressive oral needs, they may go through it very quickly. Please supervise at all times, regularly inspect the chew, and replace at first sign of wear and tear.

ARK's Fairy Princess Chewy is a charming chew tool fit for royalty. It features a long extension on one end for back molar chewing, and a fun star shape on the other end for front teeth chewing. The star end has a rib around the outside edge for extra visual and tactile interest. Made in the USA, ARK's Fairy Princess / Star Wand Chewy is a safe outlet for anyone who needs to chew, and an effective way to help calm, self-regulate, and focus. Like all other ARK chews, it comes in 3 color-coded toughness levels: Standard - This is the softest level, recommended for mild chewers (those who do not chew through anything). XT / Medium Firm - This is the middle level, which we call XT ("Xtra Tough"). It's firmer, but still fairly chewy, recommended for moderate chewers.XXT / Very Firm - This is the toughest level, which we call XXT ("Xtra Xtra Tough"). It still has some “chewability” to it, but it’s fairly rigid / pretty firm. No chew tool is indestructible, but this is usually the longest lasting level for avid chewers.Choose your option from the menu above. Each wand is sold individually. Color hues may vary slightly. Each wand measures about 15,2cm long, 5cm across the widest part, and 1,3cm thick. This wand is a handheld chew and does not come on a cord, but it does have a hole on both ends in case you'd like to add one.Please note: because of geometry, in any toughness level, the star end will feel firmer than the handle (because the handle is slimmer). Also, please note that by nature, the standard/softest level will have a little "wiggle" to it when doing fairy magic or knighting young princes. The tougher the level, the more rigidity it will have.Designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA by ARK Therapeutic. Medical grade, FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex.Caution: This product is not a toy. Recommended for children 3 years and up. Although these chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Wear/tear may be expected given the nature of the intended use. How long they last is typically equal to the amount and intensity of the chewing, as well as other variables (such as jaw strength, stress/anxiety levels, if other sensory strategies are in place, etc.). While for some people a chew tool will last forever, for others with heavy/aggressive oral needs, they may go through it very quickly. Please supervise at all times, regularly inspect the chew, and replace if necessary if the item shows signs of wear and tear.

We are your online store for speech therapy materials!
On logicana.at you will find materials for babies, children, adolescents and adults with myofunctional disorders. The products are carefully selected by speech therapist Melanie Haslinger. Always with the aim to make the therapy of orofacial myofunctional disorder colorful and at the same time effective.
Who we are?
Melanie und Daniel Haslinger are the store operators of logicana.at
Melanie, as a speech therapist who has specialized in orofacial myofunctional disorders in recent years, is the expert in jaw development, the person who selects the products and imparts knowledge. Daniel, her husband is the logistician, marketing expert and the organizer. You can also get personal product advice at Logicana. There is also a LOGICANA-Letter, the newsletter where you get updates on products and also a knowledge newsletter. Besides the personal advice and the LOGICANA Letter, there are already some downloads available with a lot of interesting information and application examples about our products. (not yet in english but coming soon). With the help of the downloads and the product description, it should be easier for you to choose the right products for your needs. If there are still specific questions, Melanie is available to answer them!
The issue of misaligned teeth and braces affects more and more families these days. Through early intervention and education of families, some braces could be prevented. And more importantly, repeat orthodontic intervention can often be avoided through myofunctional therapy.
It can often be difficult to find the right ones in the jungle of products. On Logicana, for example, there are bite rings that are recommended in the special case of an open bite or myospots that help to adopt and learn the correct tongue rest position. Other products that support the malocclusions can be found here.
Is crucial for the development of the jaw. If the tongue lies against the palate at rest and during swallowing, the muscles of the tongue act on the upper jaw bones. In this way, the dental arch and the palate are formed around the tongue and malocclusions can be prevented at an early stage, or the growth of the jaw can be supported. Would you like to automate the correct tongue rest position? With the Myospots from our online store you have made the right choice. The little helpers on the palate support you in learning and automating the correct tongue rest position.
What factors have a negative impact on the development of the face?
Thumb sucking, excessive pacifier use, continuous mouth breathing, incorrect tongue rest position, fingernail biting and other harmful habits such as bruxism (teeth grinding), biting cheeks or tongue, etc. affect facial growth. Therefore, it is our concern to make speech therapy for orofacial myofunctional disorders colorful with innovative therapy materials. Thumb suckers or children who use the pacifier for too long often suffer from an open bite. Individuals who frequently chew on their tongues or cheeks are often found in practices with a cross bite. And mouth breathers often develop a narrow face shape, tired eyes and also different tooth misalignments.
Are there products here for people without myofunctional disorder?
Definitely: YES!
Logicana.at specializes in the prevention, diagnosis and therapy of myofunctional disorders. Therefore, we also offer graspers and teething rings for babies to support the healthy development of the mouth. Especially when your baby is teething, it is often helpful to massage the gums - and this works perfectly with our teething rings. The special feature of our most popular teething ring for your baby, the Baby Grabber, is the extension. With this extension, even the erupting molars can be reached and the pain relieved. In addition to the large selection of different shapes and colors of teething rings, there are also baby spoons made of silicone or a straw bottle in our online store to make learning to eat and drink easy for your baby. With these accessories, from reaching the complementary food maturity signs, eating and drinking is fun for you and your baby.
