Funding Rationale Chewable Devices Funding Rationale The ARK MEGA Bite Saber is a larger, heavier oral motor chew designed for individuals who seek strong chewing input or who prefer to chew towards the back molars. Its extended length allows the chew to reach the back of the mouth, providing proprioceptive input to the jaw and masseter muscles. It can be used as a safe alternative to chewing on clothing, fingers, pencils or other inappropriate items, and may support self-regulation, calming and attention for individuals who have a need to chew. Key Features Extra-large design: Approximately twice the bulk and weight of the original ARK Bite Saber. Extended length: Approximately 15 cm long, making it easier to reach the back molars. Two-ended design: Approximately 1 cm in diameter at the blade end and 1.5 cm at the handle end. Suitable for stronger chewers: Particularly useful for individuals who seek more substantial chewing input. Colour-coded firmness levels: Choose the firmness that best matches the individual's chewing needs. Breakaway cord included: Makes the Bite Saber convenient to carry and readily accessible. The cord is designed with a breakaway feature for added safety. Made in the USA: Professionally manufactured by ARK Therapeutic in Columbia, South Carolina. Choose the Right Firmness 🔴 RED – SOFTThe softest option, recommended for mild chewers who do not typically chew through objects. 🔵 LIGHT BLUE – XT / MEDIUM-FIRMA firmer option for moderate chewers. XT stands for Xtra Tough and provides more resistance while still offering some chewability. 🟢 FOREST GREEN & 🟠 ORANGE – XXT / VERY FIRMThe firmest option, designed for strong or avid chewers. XXT stands for Xtra Xtra Tough. It has some chewability but is considerably firmer and more rigid than the Soft and XT options. This level is generally the longest-lasting choice for individuals who chew strongly. Oral Motor Benefits The MEGA Bite Saber can provide proprioceptive oral motor input, particularly when used to target the back molars. This type of input may be beneficial for individuals who seek strong jaw input as part of their sensory or self-regulation needs. Its longer design can make it easier to position towards the back teeth, allowing the user to access the molars and masseter muscles while chewing. Important Information Each MEGA Bite Saber is sold individually. The cord is included. Colour shades may vary slightly from the images shown. Please note that no chew tool is completely indestructible. The appropriate firmness should be selected according to the individual's chewing strength and needs. Always supervise use and regularly inspect the product for signs of wear or damage. Discontinue use if the chew becomes damaged. Dimensions: Approximately 15 cm long; 1 cm diameter at the blade end; 1.5 cm diameter at the handle end. Made in the USA by ARK Therapeutic.
