The ARK's MiniBite™ Small Chew Necklace is a discreet and stylish solution for individuals seeking oral sensory input. Designed with teens and adults in mind, its compact size and neutral colours make it an ideal choice for those who prefer subtlety in their sensory tools.
Measuring approximately 4 cm tall, 2 cm wide, and 0.9 cm thick, the MiniBite™ pendant is one of ARK's smallest chewelry options. It's perfect for providing calming and organizing proprioceptive input to the jaw, aiding in self-regulation, focus, and stress relief. Whether at school, work, or home, it's a safe alternative to chewing on fingers, clothing, or pens.
Available in three colour-coded toughness levels to suit different chewing needs:
- Standard (Soft): Recommended for mild chewers.
- XT (Medium): Firmer, suitable for moderate chewers.
- XXT (Toughest): Very firm, ideal for avid chewers.
Each pendant comes with a breakaway safety necklace cord for added security. Made from medical-grade, FDA-compliant materials, it's free from BPA, PVC, lead, phthalates, and latex, ensuring a safe chewing experience.
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. Not recommended for children under 5 years of age.
Although the Ark chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Some individuals particularly those with strong oral sensory needs or who chew aggressively may be able to damage them in a short period of time. The lifespan of each tool depends on a variety of factors, including individual chewing intensity and whether the user is receiving support from an occupational therapist.
Please supervise use at all times and replace the item if it shows signs of wear and tear. We are unable to offer refunds for chews that have been used. Finding the right chew is often a process of trial and error—please contact us for help and advice.
