Chewy Stixx Oral Tubes Tough Bar---For children with aggressive biting habits.

Good product, my child stopped chewing on it after a few months

These are absolutely brilliant. Looked for ages for a decent chewy stick that would not disintegrate as soon as my lad bit into it. It's that good we still have it. Just melted a whole in the smooth side with a screw driver to put some ribbon through and away we go. Even brought one for my step son and my niece because they are so good.

The story goes that my wisdom teeth having been coming in for a few years and I cannot afford getting them pulled. They hurt and are compressing and/or impacting my other teeth. My gums crave massage and my teeth need a really good chew (and I find that I subconsciously avoid chewing on my back teeth because they do hurt, which does not help the situation.) I had been chewing on a solid plastic toothbrush handle to help relieve the pressure, but there was no give to the material and I was concerned about ingesting the resulting flakes of plastic. Chewing gum gave no substantive relief. The line about "aggressive biting habits" on the Amazon product tab caught my eye, and the reviews looked favorable, so I decided to order the Chewy Stixx Oral Tubes Tough Bar. I am pleased with this product. It is soft enough that I can bite slowly to a full pressure without triggering my back teeth, and it is tough and thick so that there is resistance throughout a decent range of motion. This provides a very satisfying, deep, hard bite that helps relieve the tension in my teeth and jaw muscles, in a way that I cannot do with the plastic handle I was using before. I now regularly use it as a stress relief. It is also convenient and comfortable to use as a prop for massaging my gums (People do not look kindly upon people putting their fingers down their mouth in public.) Mine came in an attractive blue color. I was slightly surprised at the size and thickness of the product, which measures 4.5" by 7/8" by a chewing-side thickness of 1/2". It has indented only faintly from incisor and canine teeth bites, but otherwise seems very durable. It is probably no replacement for oral surgery in the long run, but it's helping me manage in the meantime.

I got this for my autistic son who has mouthing behaviors. He did chew through several such chew tubes and that what made me look for some aggressive types. This is really tough and he took a while to prime. I am glad that he was not able to break through this one. I would have loved for the circumference to be a bit smaller as it fills up his mouth. He accepts it when handed but does not keep it longer. I would sure recommend this for someone looking forward to the tougher ones for durability. Alternatively if you have sore teeth the stubbed end is a soother. Just days ago I saw this in our dentist office and my son accepted it happily during observation as we had the same one home for months! Yay, that just says more about it.

My daughter cannot stay without it. It pacifies her. The material is very durable. I am very happy with this product. 😊

If you're looking for something durable, this is it. We've been through so many that break after a few hours or days but this has lasted months and not even a dent. My kids are 8 and 10 and constantly seeking to chew. Only downside is that there's nothing to attach it to to wear it around their necks. But still worth it
