Here is a link to a site that sells one kind of chewy medallions:

We also bought aquarium tubing and cut in 2 or 3 inch lengths and put on a

plastic, slightly stretchy cord for DS, 25! He still chews pens, antennas on

phones, cords, you name it! We found all at Walmart, made a pretty cool necklace

type thing for older guy.
