I got the 8pcs Mix Aromas Aligner Chewies. They came well packaged and undamaged, and they have a decent amount of smell that lends minor flavor. I can tell these are artificial scents, but for most of them this doesn't bother me. The mint, blueberry, watermelon, and grape scents are spot-on. I like the watermelon the best; it's like extra gum. The mint is also great and strong like spearmint tic tacs. I couldn't recognize the picture for light purple, but upon smelling and tasting it I was pretty sure it was taro despite being a westerner not knowing what taro root tastes like. The citrus ones really lack that characteristic bright citrusy scent that you would come to expect, though. The lemon is still recognizable yet different, but the orange is so weak it could be peach for all I can tell. And then there's the strawberry... it's initially like strawberry poptarts, but it has a really weird extra note that smells awful to me like dog breath or something. Each end of the Y fits my bite well for the areas they specify them for: the small gap for the incisors, the big gap for the canines, and the three ridges for the molars. The "45 degree" hardness lends itself to being just a tad firmer than the "medium" chewies I already own and those have held up for ages with no damage (but your mileage may vary, I'm not rough with them). I will update this review when I have a better idea of the longevity of the scent, etc. Overall, I like the variety and extra stimulation of these aligner chewies both in shape and scent. One scent is unpleasant to me, but the vast majority are either inoffensive or pleasant and this pack will see a lot of use.

These work great for new aligners that need a little more snug fit before theyre broken in. We just bite down on them and they help put the aligners in the right place.

I was intrigued to give these a try since sometimes I will gag on the straight chewies that my dentist gave me when I started aligners. It took a little while to adjust to these. They are quite a bit larger so I usually only have one side in my mouth at a time. I often need to hold on to them with one hand while moving it around my mouth to tighten different spots. When opening a new package, you can definitely smell the different flavors. However, you don't really notice a taste very much when chewing on it and I don't think it lasts very long. On the plus side I don't seem to gag on these. I think the little bit of smell it gives off and a slight flavor other than rubber really helps with this. I have the tendency to set them down around the house when I'm done with them so it's nice to have this big variety pack so that there's always one available!

I started on my Invisalign journey about a month ago, after using another aligner brand back in 2019 and unfortunately having my teeth shift back. Of course my dentist provided a few of the chewie tubes, along with aligners, to help with seating as well as pain. I hate using the tube chewies because they are very slippery and I feel like I always need to hold them in place with my hand, or else risk choking or biting my tongue if it slips! Not to mention how slippery and slimy they get. I am easily able to securely hold these in place with my teeth and don't worry about accidentally swallowing or dropping. I like that there are several options on the device, depending on where you want to correct your bite. I'm still trying to figure out which ones work the best, but I typically just use the large opening on my front teeth, which is where I have the most difficulty seating at least on my current aligner set. I do have quite a few attachments (16) and the grooves in the chewies still fit my appliance These chewies come individually wrapped, and vacuum sealed. There isn't really a "flavor", but rather a scent that you can smell when using. I'm currently using the "grape" and it definitely smells like a grape Jolly Rancher. I'm not bothered by the smell at all, and I'm normally not a fan of grape flavors. The rest are still sealed so I can't comment on those, but I will update if there are any I don't like. I will definitely be ordering more of these and will be recommending to others who are using aligners.

The scent from these is nice. They have very little flavor, and just a subtle scent, which I like. Not entirely sure why the coconut ones are always purple on these things, but that's not a significant concern. They're fairly satisfying to chew, but are just slightly too big in my opinion. At the same time, however, they're also slightly too small... the arms are long enough that you'd want to get just one in your mouth at a time, but are also short enough that this is basically impossible. I appreciate the effort of each arm being a bit different, but with the way they're shaped and how thick they are, I have to be very careful while using them; it's far too easy for them to pop out of place, causing you to bite your tongue or cheek. Also, just to be clear, since the listing claims two different things depending on where you look: you're getting eight chews, not nine. The unscented white one wasn't included in the bag I got.
