Break-Away Bite Bands

Say goodbye to soaked, chewed-up shirts with our soft chew necklaces, the perfect solution for children prone to chewing and biting their clothes or other objects. These bite bands, made from super absorbent terry cloth, are specially designed to catch saliva and keep clothing dry, even after prolonged chewing. Unlike traditional silicone or plastic chew necklaces, these bands offer a practical solution that also contributes to the exercise of oral motor and facial muscles, in preparation for good eating habits. Thanks to their long lifespan and a safe hook-and-loop closure, they are ideal for moderate chewers and cannot be returned for safety reasons.

These bands not only stimulate tactile and oral motor exploration but also provide support for children with sensory processing disorders, autism, ADHD, or specific oral motor needs. They are carefully made by Fun and Function and are intended for children from the age of 3.

Practical applications include wearing to school for use on the bus or during class, and choosing a band that matches your clothing to add a fashionable accessory while keeping the outfit dry. A fun activity is to lay out all the bite bands on the table, call out a color, and see if your child can grab it.

Each set contains six bite bands, each 63.5 cm long and 2.54 cm in diameter, weighing 28 grams. They are made of 100% polyester, machine washable on a cold, gentle cycle, and should be dried flat. Available in colors such as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, all equipped with a white hook-and-loop closure.

These bite bands are specifically designed for mouth use and have been independently tested by an accredited laboratory, meeting or exceeding safety standards for flammability and lead/heavy metals.

WARNING: Not suitable for children under 3 years. Use under adult supervision is recommended. Inspect the chew necklace before each use and replace immediately if signs of wear or damage are evident.
