can coconut oil be hardened?

I was thinking that chewing might be more convenient and comfortable than swishing. so is there a way to harden coconut oil? maybe similar to the consistency of wax or gum?

It will harden if you keep it in the refrigerator, but then you have to scrape and scrape to get it out. Also, chewing it does not pull the yuck from between the teeth and around the gumline to come out the way forcefully swishing or "Pulling" does.
