ARK Brick Stick® Textured Chew Necklace

Made in the USA,  ARK's Brick Stick® Textured Chew Necklace provides a safe, wearable, discrete, and cool solution for those who need to chew. Use this "chewelry" as an oral fidget (or even hand fidget) to help calm, soothe, and self-regulate during times of stress, to better focus during homework and other activities, for sensory oral motor input, and/or as a safe alternative to chewing/biting on fingers, knuckles, shirts, pencils, etc.  The long shape means you can reach all the way to the back molars for adequate chewing, and two different textures are built-in for varied tactile input:  large bumps on one side and small bumps on the other.

ARK's Brick Stick® comes in 3 color-coded toughness levels:

• Standard = Soft (very chewy), recommended for mild chewing only
• XT = Medium (firmer, but still chewy), for mild to moderate chewing
• XXT = Toughest (the most firm), recommended for those who like to chew on firm / fairly rigid items.  This is also the longest lasting level for avid chewing. 

Details:

• Each pendant is sold individually with its own breakaway necklace cord
• Designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA by ARK Therapeutic
• Each pendant is medical grade, FDA compliant, and contains NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex
• Each pendant measures approximately 2.5 inches long by 5/8 inch wide.  Including the bumps, it measures just under .5 inch thick.
• The cord measures approximately 36 inches in length.
• If desired, you can shorten the cord by scooting the thread out of the clasp, retying the knot at a shorter length, and then trimming the excess thread.
• Highly recommended for individuals who have Autism, sensory needs, anxiety, ADHD, etc, or for anyone of any age who needs to chew.

  This chewable fidget necklace for kids and adults is 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 if necessary if the item shows signs of wear and tear.
