ARK Y-Chew Sensory Chew, XT, Firm, XXT, Very Firm, Royal Blue

Great tool for people with autism.

We have a child in feeding therapy for jaw strengthening and we're really happy with giving this to her during meals. We give it to her when she seems to get bored with eating or slows down. We cheer her on when she goes side to side with it so it's fun!

I highly recommend the xxt chewies for aggressive chewers. My son is 9 with sanfilippo syndrome so he chews everything. This brand has different xxt chewies and they are all my son uses. I don't have to worry about him getting through it quickl and he loves the texture.

Still comes apart with a tough chewer

This company is the only one I’ve found that has been able to provide a “chew toy” product for big kids. My son is 18 years old and has cerebral palsy. He grinds his teeth something awful! As he grew out of the orange Ps & Qs that became Ds and Os, I knew he needed something stronger. The XXT (blue colors) holds up extremely well. The company even has a P which is probably his favorite, since the loop is easy to grip with his adult sized hands and the bottom part is still long enough and strong enough to help him focus on chewing and not simply grinding his teeth. I think this company mentions hand washing this product, but I have always put them on the top rack in the dishwasher and had fine results. I’d rather have the mindset knowing they were truly clean and buy new ones a bit faster (but I haven’t had to replace very often)!

My son chews so hard he usually bits the end off, but this once is really tough which is perfect for his oral-bitting needs. I just with there were more color options but with this same sturdy and toughness!

I like Ark’s “jewel” chews. The soft ones are really pleasant to chew on but I destroy them (they also squeak, do not use in an office setting!!!). I had tried the “brick” in XXT and it was too thick for me to actually chew. I gave up on chew toys for awhile but I… needed one. Recently. This is bigger than I expected (I have smallish hands, but see photo) but thin enough that it still fits between my teeth, unlike the brick. Not as enjoyable to chew as the softer ones, but chewable and it should last a little while.

It looks like the picture and it isn’t broken, it’s well packaged and clean. Only problem is that it’s to hard to chew on. It’s also a tad big and it makes it harder to chew. Just wish it would work out better. If you’re giving it to your kid I recommend getting something softer. It’s also uncomfortable in my mouth and very thick

A great therapeutic tool that helps a lot in stimulating oral motor skills. I recommend it!

My daughter is 7 and chews this really hard, and loves it. We got this for her because she was chewing pencils and her clothes at school, and now she asks to bring this with her wherever she goes so she doesn’t chew on other things. Work great!

Durable but safe for constant chew

I liked this item a lot however my little guy did bite through it after a few weeks. He’s 8.
