I know that there are hard rubber like material that were made to strengthen jaw muscles.

Licorice sticks might be used too.

I personally use turkish falim gum, you can get it basically without flavor, it's pretty hard and you can chew on it for >1h without it tasting weird
very nice, i didn't know about it, thanks
glycyrrhizic acid in licorice can drop your blood potassium level and cause cardiac arrhythmia, however, as well as commonly raising blood pressure [1]

ps: apparently licorice can cause harm
Doesn't licorice lower intelligence?
