He needed to chew something other than his toothbrush. I purchased these after talking to a few mothers at the OT office. I received the shipment pretty fast but the product was not as I thought it would be. They had NO flavor and NO scent. Actually one had a really slight mint smell but no flavor. My son was totally turned off by the plastic scent. So, I called the seller and they told me that the scent and flavor were extremely faint. And that it only activated with the heat of chewing for a while. So being a good mom, I chewed those things for a half an hour for each one trying to activate the smell/taste for my little one. And nothing, nil, nodda. There was no flavor and no scent emanating from these things well except the plastic one. Even the one that smelled faintly of mint began to taste real plasticky after a while. My son will only chew the minty scented one for a little bit. So now he is throwing them around like ninja throwing stars. I guess we are getting some kind of use out of them. But I am still on the hunt for some actually taste and scented chewy things. I also, saw that you can buy a candy scented/flavored spray to spritz them with and I was thinking of doing just that. I will let you know if that helps him to get past the plastic scent/taste. Thanks. chewstixxJul 03, 2011 By Lisa F This item means saftey for my son who has Pica; he will chew on this instead of eating his clothes, pencils, toys, etc. a bit wide for some small mouthsMar 10, 2011 By Allison Jane This is a great idea, and my dysphagia client did try it a couple of times so far. However, the chew segments are too wide to easily fit in his mouth, since he has oral apraxia and oral sensitivity and frequent difficulty opening his mouth wide. It would have been helpful to have labeled the flavor of each chew stick. Son bites off piecesSep 21, 2010 By V. Rodriguez I bought the multi-pack for my son. He has bitten through 3 of them in less than one month! He only likes chewing on the smooth portion and has manage to gnaw off the ends of it. If they are made for chewing, they should be more durable!
