Anyone have any tips on how to make the teeth trays fit your mouth better? It took me a few tries to get my trays perfect, but I'm assuming there's a

I recommend using a hot-water boiler, and putting the boiling water in a coffee mug. Hold the trays with your thumb holding the circle piece, to submerge most of the tray into the hot water. You'll see the mouth piece turn pretty translucent and floppy/droopy.. this is when you put it in your mouth. don't worry you wont burn yourself when you put it in it's not that hot! Then suck really hard and use your fingers to press it around your mouth.. I got it the first time but maybe it takes a few times. Lastly, you can just cut off the circular tab and it will fit in your mouth much better. Hope that helps!

the custom trays, no it is not hard to make the mold. the cheaper trays that come with the set, they are not hard to mold but they don't work nearly as well as the custom trays. not a tight fit and much too big for my mouth, they were uncomfortable. it's worth the price to get the custom. i did see a quick change, like 3 shades in the first week probably. it kind of plateaued a bit after that but definitely worked.

I was worried that they wouldn't fit over my front teeth properly too. But when I got the kit, it was surprisingly easy to fit them and understand the instructions. It may take a few tries before you get them to fit the way you want. I had no problems with them fitting over my front teeth, even with a couple teeth missing, and was able to close my mouth normally. They look a bit like you're wearing dentures, but it's much preferable to having missing, discolored, or broken teeth.

First you need to purchase blank molds that fit over your teeth. The the product seems mild enough to be used every couple of weeks. It really works well and the price is right. Follow the instruction carefully. Making the mold to fit your bite is critical. I boil water in the microwave in a container large enough to hold the molds. Do one at a time. Be careful because the mold will be hot. Put it in your mouth and suck to pull the mold against your teeth. Keep it there until it cools and repeat the procedure with the other mold. Coat the inside of the mold with the product and follow the instructions on the length of time you expose your teeth to the whitener. Usually about 10 minutes. I also use a special light that wraps around my neck and shines on my teeth. You may want to consider getting one of those lights. Hope this was helpful.

I did have a little of an impression from my bottom teeth. What seems to hold it in place is the mild around the front teeth and the molding on the roof of your mouth. The first time it fit perfectly after 2 attempts at molding but the last one I purchased, my second, I had a hard time getting a really great fit even after 3 tries. I decided to just leave it, it doesn't fall out but can be easily removed with just my tongue, packaging says it should be more difficult to remove than that. Anyhow, I didn't want to keep messing with it because I was afraid to ruin itAnd I haven't had it fall out on me so far. I did have a little of an impression from my bottom teeth.

I got mine from my dentist. You can get trays at the drug store also but they do not fit as well as the ones custom made by a dentist.

Yes. There are instructions included in the kit to mold them to your teeth. Best? I think that is more personal preference really. Some prefer a soft mouth tray and others prefer a stiff one.

They'll fit just won't grasp your existing teeth to stay on I'm gonna try them with some dental paste and see if they stay put

I recently got instamorph and It doesnt expand like I hear temp tooth does on cooling so it is hard to get it to stay in place, I am still working on something that will work better. I would be embarrassed if it fell out while talking to a client. It does stain well and is very easy to mold into a real looking tooth. it is fun to play with as well.

You can actually make a whole set if needed, it takes a but of time to shape them right, but it can be done. You'll want to have a toothpick to make them look like teeth...patience is the key.

Hello, The final trays cover the teeth that are in the impression that is sent in, if a good impression is made, which is very easy to do, then you will get a full coverage. All visible teeth are always covered, on a rare occasion, a rear molar, if the impression is not correct will not be covered. The rear molar is the tooth in the far back. We take a lot of pride in making our trays and as our reviews show, you will get the best fitting tray, Thanks!

I only got 1 of the trays with mine instead of the 2 it should have come with. So I rubbed it on my teeth and then stuck the blue light in. I could feel the light literally pulsing in my teeth. I couldn't use the trays, but it is my understanding that you are supposed to microwave them for 15 seconds, then put in your mouth and it will form to your teeth, then, put liquid on it then stick in your mouth. I would do all that though if I was you. It really does whiten, but harder stains will stay, and unfortunately becoe more noticable.

Maybe...If you press, rub lightly over the tooth surfaces and hold in place for 10-15 seconds the strip may conform to the irregular surfaces. They seem to hold in place well and even are hard to remove if left in too long. Trays may be a better solution.

I had no difficulty adjusting to this dental guard. Before I use it however, I always run it under hot water to "soften it " for a few minutes. ThenI pop it in my mouth and my teeth make an imprint. No trouble at all. Hope this information helps.

HeyI used a rigid pointed tip nail file. Soaked the dentures in warm water. I used vary little because I just wanted a better feel along with my adhesive.It is a trial and error thing but I found I can do better than dentist. Hope it works out, be patient!

The trays are very professional. I had a molar extracted and I am eventually going to have a dental implant placed there. In the meantime I elected to go on and order this kit. A great deal, trust me. They sent the trays back to me and where I have a tooth missing they simply made the rubber tray to dip down and then go on to the next tooth. The extracted molar sat between two other teeth but it did not interfere with their design of my tray- hope this helps

I suggest buying new trays at walmart. Cut them down along the top to fit comfortably in your mouth, then stick the light tightly against the tray and close your lips around the whole thing! It feels weird but...and hold the light tightly in your mouth with your hand. Hope this helps!
