Handheld Chews

The guitar teether supports chewing by reaching the back molars with a long extension. The smooth loop makes it easy to hold, while uneven surfaces provide sensory and tactile stimulation. The guitar-like design encourages chewing training and desensitization of the mouth, which is especially helpful for oral defense and transition to solid foods. The item serves as a safe, alternative chew toy that reduces chewing on objects such as hands or pens, trains jaw strength and satisfies the need to chew during tube feeding. Here you will find exercises for jaw graduation and stability. ARK Guitar is available in 3 color-coded degrees of hardness: Standard / soft - This is the softest level recommended for light chewing.XT / medium - This is the medium level recommended for moderate chewing. XXT / hard - This is the hardest level, recommended for heavy chewing.The guitar is 13.7cm long and approx. 1.3cm thickAll ARK products are dishwasher safe, can be boiled, cleaned in aldehyde-free disinfectant, or simply washed with mild soap.Medical grade, FDA compliant. NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA or latex Caution: This product is not a toy. Although these chewing tools are robust and durable, no chewing tool is indestructible. Wear and tear is to be expected due to the intended use. How long they last usually depends on the amount and intensity of chewing as well as other variables (e.g. jaw strength, stress/anxiety level, whether other sensory strategies are used, etc.). While for some people a chewing tool will last forever, for others with severe/aggressive oral needs it may be used up very quickly. Please supervise the chew at all times, check it regularly and replace it if necessary when it shows signs of wear.

The ARK Flidget™ is a cool tactile hand fidget for home, school, work, or anywhere in between. Flip it inside and out and back again for endless fidgeting to keep the hands busy and the mind focused. You can also run your fingers across any of the 4 different textured sections. Around the outside of the Flidget, there's a section of bumps, ovals, and lines, each increasing in size as you go from the top to the bottom for even more tactile variation. Vertical lines run along the inside section of the Flidget.Standard - the soft (standard) level is easier to flipXT / Medium Firm - the firmer level provides a more challenging flip to work the hands moreAs an added bonus: the Flidget is chewable!Each flidget is approx. 3.8cm high and 0.32cm thick. The small opening measures approx. 3.4cm and the large opening approx. 6.4cm. Medical grade, FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA or latex.All ARK products are dishwasher safe, can be boiled, cleaned in aldehyde-free disinfectant, or simply washed with mild soap.CAUTION: This product is not a toy. Adult supervision recommended at all times. Recommended for ages 3 years and up. Wear/tear may be expected given the nature of the intended use. Regularly inspect the product and replace at first sign of wear and tear.

ARK's SolaBite™ is a chew with a lot of character!Whether you think it looks like a sun, a starfish, a ninja star, or anything in between - sensory seekers will love all of the variation and texture. It has five different pointed arms to chew on, each with a different texture:smooth, striated, treaded, ribbed and bumpy.The texture on each arm also increases in intensity as you move clockwise around the chew, with the smooth arm providing the least amount of sensory input and the bumpy arm providing the most. Each SolaBite measures just over 12,7cm across/tall, with each arm measuring about 4,3cm long and 0,9cm thick (one of the thinnest handheld chews). Use this oral sensory solution as a safe alternative to chewing on pencils, crayons, shirts, fingers, etc. and to help calm, focus, and self-regulate. 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.Medical grade, FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex.Recommended for ages 3 years and up. All ARK products are dishwasher safe, can be boiled, cleaned in aldehyde-free disinfectant, or simply washed with mild soap.CAUTION: This product is not a toy. Direct supervision required. Recommended for ages 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 at first sign of wear and tear.

The MEGA RoboChew™ from ARK is the largest teething ring from ARK. Logical recommendation: For slightly smaller children, the MEGA RoboChew offers a great opportunity to explore the mouth and strengthen the speech organs.As this teething ring is very large, it cannot be pushed into the throat.Due to the size of this teething ring, even small children's hands can easily grasp and hold it.An optional necklace can also be ordered, which is recommended for ages 5 and up.Please always offer it under supervision.As the MEGA RoboChew is slightly larger and heavier, we recommend this teething ring for ages 6 months and up.The MEGA version is approximately 11.5cm high, 7.1cm wide and 1.4cm at its thickest point. The MEGA RoboChew is ideal for stronger chewers and/or those looking for something bigger. The ARK MEGA RoboChew is a hand-held chew and does not come with a chain as standard, but does have a hole for a chain if you wish to add one. The ARK MEGA RoboChew™ is available in 3 colour coded degrees of hardness: Standard / soft - This is the softest level and is recommended for light chewing.XT / medium - This is the medium level and is recommended for moderate chewing.XXT / hard - This is the hardest setting and is recommended for heavy chewing.Medical grade, FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA or latex. All ARK products are dishwasher safe, can be boiled, cleaned in aldehyde-free disinfectant, or simply washed with mild soap.CAUTION: This product is not a toy. 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.

Please supervise at all times, regularly inspect the chew, and replace at first sign of wear and tear.

ARK's Bendy Bite™ doubles as both a fidget and a chew!Chew it, twist it, bend it. Fold one arm inside the center circle and out the other side for a loop of fidgety fun (note: this works best with the standard and XT levels. It can also be done with the firmer XXT level but is more challenging!).At 8,9cm wide and 0,75cm thick, it's one of the thinnest handheld chews. Use this oral sensory solution as a safe alternative to chewing on pencils, shirts, fingers, etc. and to help calm, focus, and self-regulate.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.Please note: Because of how thin this chew is, even the XXT level may not be a long lasting option for moderate to avid chewing. For more robust chews, check out the MEGA Brick Stick.Medical grade, FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex. Recommended for ages 3 years and up. All ARK products are dishwasher safe, can be boiled, cleaned in aldehyde-free disinfectant, or simply washed with mild soap.CAUTION: This product is not a toy. Direct supervision required.

Invented by Debra C. Lowsky, MS, CCC-SLP, ARK's Textured Grabber® is a textured version of the popular Grabber® oral motor chew tool.The innovative P shape design has an easy-to-hold loop, with a long extension for reaching the back molars. It also features 3 different surfaces to chew on: one smooth, one with circular bumps, and one with rectangular bumps. These textures simulate the feel of actual food for realistic non-food chewing practice. They also add extra tactile sensation to the lips, cheeks, gums, and tongue to help desensitize the mouth, decrease oral defensiveness/aversions, and transition individuals with sensory issues from puréed to textured foods. The Grabber® can also be used:As an oral fidget for sensory seekers craving stimulation and proprioceptive inputAs a safe alternative to chewing on hands, knuckles, shirts, pencils, etc.As an alternative to tooth-grinding and/or thumb-sucking To help decrease oral defensiveness and food aversionsTo practice biting/chewing without the risk of chokingTo work on jaw strength and stability and oral motor skillsTo build oral strength, mobility, and controlTo satisfy the urge to chew for individuals who are fed through a g-tubeARK Textured Grabber® comes in 3 color-coded toughness levels:Standard (red or magenta) - These are the softest ones with the most “squishiness” and “give” to them. Recommended for mild chewers and/or beginners practicing biting/chewing skills Medium Firm / XT (lime green or teal) - XT stands for "Xtra Tough," recommended for moderate chewing. These are firmer, but still chewy. Very Firm / XXT (royal blue or forest green) - XXT stands for "Xtra Xtra Tough," recommended for more avid chewing. These are the most firm and provide the most resistance to the jaw. No chew tool is indestructible, but these are very tough.ARK manufactures the Grabber® in the USA! It's medical grade, FDA compliant, and contains NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex. Measures approximately 13cm lengthwise, just under 5cm across the loop, and 1,3cm thick.All ARK products are dishwasher safe, can be boiled, cleaned in aldehyde-free disinfectant, or simply washed with mild soap.CAUTION: This product is not a toy.

ARK's Textured Grabber® P Tube is just like the original Textured Grabber, but about 5cm of the stem is hollow instead of solid.The tube-like extension is perfect for individuals who want their chew tool to "collapse" more, whether as a sensory chew and/or in feeding therapy. As an oral motor tool, use it to practice biting/chewing skills without the risk of choking, build jaw strength and stability, and exercise the mouth muscles. Put puréed foods inside the tube for functional biting/chewing practice so that the individual gets a taste of food when they bite down. Because the hollow tube provides less resistance than the solid original Grabbers, this is a great "starter" chew tool for individuals with very limited jaw strength. The bumps and nubs help provide extra sensory input and tactile feedback.Like all ARK chews, it comes in 3 color-coded toughness levels:Standard - This is the softest level, recommended for mild chewing and/or individuals with very limited jaw strength  XT / Medium Firm - This is the middle level, which we call XT ("Xtra Tough"). It's firmer, but still fairly chewy.XXT / Very Firm - This is the toughest level, which we call XXT ("Xtra Xtra Tough"). This level provides the most resistance/feedback to the jaw. Please note: Because it is hollow, the extension will feel much softer than other ARK chews in the same level! These hollow chews are not recommended as a long lasting option for avid/aggressive chewers. Check out any other solid chews for longer lasting options. The Y-Chew or the regular Grabber are better suited for stronger chewing.Each Grabber® measures about 5cm across the loop, 13cm long, and 1,3cm thick. Made in the USA Designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA by ARK Therapeutic.

ARK's Bite Tube is a hollow chew tool with a different diameter on each end. Each end also has a different texture - bumps on one end and ribs on the other for lots of sensory input. Use it as a safe alternative for anyone who needs to chew. They can also be used as an oral motor tool to work on jaw strength and stability. The tube-like extension is perfect for individuals who want their chew tool to "collapse" more, whether as a sensory chew and/or in feeding therapy. As an oral motor tool, use it to practice biting/chewing skills without the risk of choking, to build jaw strength and stability, and to exercise the mouth muscles.Put puréed foods inside the tube for functional biting/chewing practice - when the individual bites down, they will be rewarded with a taste of food. The two different diameters allow you to work on varying jaw heights. Because the hollow tube provides less resistance than solid chews like the normal Grabber, this is a great "starter" chew tool for individuals with very limited jaw strength.Each chew measures about 12,7cm long overall, 1,3cm in diameter on one end, and 1cm in diameter on the other end. It is hollow all the way through the core.Like all ARK chews, the Bite Tube is available in 3 color-coded toughness levels:Standard - This is the softest level, recommended for mild chewers (those who do not chew through anything) and/or those with limited jaw strength 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 pretty firm (although not as firm/tough as our solid chews). Note: if you are looking for a long lasting chew tool for avid chewing, we recommend solid chews over hollow chews.

Check out the Tetra-Bite for example.Medical grade, FDA compliant, NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex. Each Bite Tube is sold individually - choose which option you'd like from the pull-down menu above.Exact color hues may vary slightly.All ARK products are dishwasher safe, can be boiled, cleaned in aldehyde-free disinfectant, or simply washed with mild soap.CAUTION: This product is not a toy. 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 / Soft Firm - 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. Optionally, the necklace with the safety clasp and adjustable length can be threaded into the end of the magic wand, so you can always take it with you when you're on the go.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.

Chewing gum and working on your muscles at the same time?This is a very frequently asked question when it is explained that we humans chew far too little.Chewing ordinary chewing gum, which usually just sits in the cheek pockets after a short time and is often chewed from time to time with the lips open as a pastime, has no proven effect on the jaw muscles. With JawLiner® chewing gum this is different - you can now incorporate chewing gum into your daily routine and train your muscles unnoticed and without additional accessories! JawLiner® chewing gum is much tougher/harder than ordinary chewing gum and therefore also has positive effects on your muscles! LOGICANA RECOMMENDATION:Chew every other day for a maximum of 10 minutes Close your lips while chewingEnjoy the refreshing taste of the chewing gumSuitable from the age of 14 The advantages of JAWLINER chewing gum: 100% vegan100% sugar-free 5-10 minutes of chewing with closed lips trains over 80 muscles in the face. The best results are achieved in combination with the Mewing Ring to train the physiological resting position of the tongue! In our society, there is hardly any food that needs to be chewed properly. Most of the food we eat is cooked or processed in some way. This provides relatively little activity for our facial muscles and therefore also causes our jaws to shrink and teeth to become misaligned. Long, narrow faces are the result of mouth breathing and insufficient use of the facial and jaw muscles. Wide smiles, strong jawbones and the famous jawline are often cited as arguments for aesthetics and attractiveness. Although these aspects should not be neglected, we at LOGICANA stand above all for health, well-being and function. In the case of physiological jaw development and nasal breathing, function and aesthetics are on the same level.Information: This is a particularly hard/tenacious fitness chewing gum, where every chewing process strains the jaw and facial muscles. We therefore recommend chewing the gum for no longer than 10-15 minutes every other day. Product Information:Chewing gum without sugar. With sweeteners and different flavors. Ingredients: Chewing mass, sweetener: maltitol; flavors, thickener: gum arabic; Coating agent: carnauba wax; anti-caking agent: talc. (vegan) Nutritional information per 100g: Energy: 202 kJ/ 48 kcal, carbohydrates: 20g, of which sugar: 0g. Contains small amounts of fat, saturated fatty acids, protein and salt.

Natural rubber tube from Stomax (Stöhrmann)This rubber offers an interesting way to explore the mouth or to generate sensory stimuli for the hands and gripping. Training with the chewing tube is also a classic among the speech therapy tools for myofunctional therapy. Chewing on the tube trains chewing and biting functions and supports jaw development. Logical recommendation:Order 1m of tube, cut to size OR tie a knot and offer it to your child (see demo video in the image preview).  Example of use for slightly older children or adults: Put the ends of your chewing tube together, press firmly around 2cm behind the ends and let your patients chew on it - the ends of the chewing tube may already be sucking onto the edges of the tongue - ideal for training the lateralization of the tongue. Clean the tube by boiling it for 1-2 minutes or washing it with mild soap. Then let it dry and do not seal it airtight immediately. Price per 1m = 5.95 euros Dimension: 5.0 x 2.5mmCAUTION: The natural rubber hose from Stomax is NOT a toy and should ALWAYS be offered to babies and small children under the supervision of parents. Replace the hose if there are signs of wear or tear.
