Is this necklace safe for a teenager with autism to chew on?

I think it would be. Only thing Is how hard the teenager is biting. My toddler often plays with it and it leaves teeth marks. Nothing that's destroyed the necklace or anything.

Probably not, unless you were wearing it. It's quite flexible, if you could get a bead in your mouth you could easily choke.

Unfortunately the necklace is not easy to latch or remove. This was something that annoyed us about the product, but at least you don't have to worry about the child being able to remove it on her/his own.

It is made out of two amber "beads". One is the female end with a hole with threading. The other is the male end with a plastic "screw" that is fully threaded in the male end. The two beads simply thread together. It has never come apart. Seems super safe, to me, for putting on a baby and I am a very cautious mama. We have LOVED the necklace. I was giving Tylenol 3 - 4 X a day before putting this on. Now I almost never resort to medication for teething. I have never taken it off of her.

Both my son and myself are ASD and while we didn't chew on it, we were not gentle on it and has held up well. It is very thick on the corners.

No, it's not! Not only is it a horrendous choking hazard, most 1 year olds would destroy the product. This is made of felt and for ages 3+.

I don't think you're supposed to let them chew on it. You just brush their teeth with it and put it away. If they inadvertently bite down on it, I don't think that should be any issue.

Because this is made for babies, and they are at that "put everything in sight in the mouth" stage, I believe the plastic would be nontoxic. My granddaughter chews on it constantly.

The tip has sharp pointy edges when opened so it can pierce into the top of the strawberry. I would say it's not safe for young children.

I'm sorry I can't answer your question as my daughter has the necklace. I know it was plenty big so it lay onto my grandchilds chest but not so long it was an issue.

My son has one and I would definitely not let anyone else use it. It only has one mouth piece and I would worry about germs!

My son has had this necklace on 24-7 since he was 6 weeks old. He's going to be 2 in July. Do whatever you think is best, but for us, this totally works and our family is comfortable with it.

You should be cautious with any kind of jewelry worn on any child under 5. I haven't had any problems yet with my son. He wears his all day long, he's even taken naps with it on. I've heard that you can also wrap these around the ankle for the same effect(and no worrying about suffocation)! I hope this helps!

My son chews on everything and he likes the little patch of hair on the dolls head. I think it could be chewed off, so that is a potential choking hazard.

No nothing in it for that. It is bumpy for them to chew on and it massages their gums both of my kids love this binki. I highly recommend this. Make sure u get the size for your child tho because if they are under 6 months the one I fot was big so my son couldnt have it for a while. So for my daughter I found a smaller one

The clasp is just a skinny pc of rubber that goes into the other end; about the same size as the necklace. It is black not silver or gold & not round. You would not have a problem putting bales on this necklace.

Greetings Harry, my work is in the realm of autism and yes, your son will be able to remove this bracelet. Maybe try the stretchy bands. They can be twirled,twisted and rubbed, taken off and put back on by your son. They also are available in bright and/or quiet colors.
