Would this product stay in place on teeth without braces? I have old worn front bottom teeth that are air sensitive.

I have not tried it without the braces. Its basic use is to protect mouth areas from brace wires and brackets that are causing pain. It starts out soft, then rubberizes a bit. I stick it into the brace to hold it in place. Its a bit like keeping a piece of gum in your mouth. Therefore, It should be used in a non visible place. Unfortunately, front bottom teeth are not an ideal spot.

I don't think it would. I tried it on a smooth spot on my retainer and it came right off.

Hi Linda, My husband uses these and he is very satisfied. He has tried other brands only to have them slip out of place and then his dentures slip also. He would recommend them for you to try.

No. I would recommend a tech for comfort & fit. It's a good price for a temp solution if u can't get to your dentist. I will continue to use this because mine is a far drive. It works well enough til I can get an appt.

Hi Janice,I agree with others that have answered you. The guard fits loosely and keeps your tongue from bothering your teeth. So, once you get used to it, and place it in your mouth, you will not remember at a point you are using it and can sleep all night without any problems at all.

Good morning, Michael. This will work. To secure the braces they will need to be screwed into place. Thank you, Sarah | Plow & Hearth Customer Service

yes. with this product you make a mold of your current teeth. the finished product is a retainer which will hold your teeth in place and prevent further shifting. you can use it for 1 top or 1 bottom, not top and bottom; however they do sell a product to do both.

Yes you can, it should work fine. However, I would suggest even thinking about investing in a more protective (expensive) mouthguard or one specifically molded by a dentist if you have that option.

I was told to wear trays 2 hours..if teeth are not white enough wear them the next nite..the product could make your teeth sensitive.

Idk...I didn't have Invisalign for my braces. But, it hasn't damaged the plastic mouth tray I got from the dentist. I do brush it out & rinse it w/ water when I'm done. If you're hesitant...you can always call your dentist to ask :)

Hi Jon, I am unsure in terms of if it will stick to it. It sticks very well to the metal and gold of my inside braces and was the saving grace of my tongue when i started using it. I have used this every day since i got my inner braces, 6 months now and highly recommend giving it a try! Its worth the risk of the 8$ to give it a go. Its far better than wax, which is probably a cheaper alternative you could try and find in your regular drug store. It took a couple of days to get the placement right for me but now I am a pro. I line all of my upper inner teeth with it and 1 syringe lasts about a week. My biggest complaint is I cant seem to find a place that I can buy this in bulk. It will stay all day for me as long I dont mistakenly put it on the horizontal plane of my teeth that does the chewing.

The mold fits on the top teeth and protects both top and bottom. I would think that you the me on the bottom teeth if you wanted to fit the bottom . But I would ask the manufacturer

I just bought the upper ones. I have never worn the bottom ones. I do however have a retainer I wear on the bottom from after I finished invisalign. I did not wear a bottom guard before my invisalign though.

I'm not sure if this is what you are seeking. The purpose of this guard is to prevent someone from grinding the top and bottom teeth together. If this is what you need:This does not have a strap. It is supported between the uppers and the lower teeth. If your husband doesn't have lower teeth then this wouldn't work. If he does, it would also protect the lower teeth.

Absolutely! You should check with his orthodontist about adding fluoride or other tooth protective rinses - but even with plain water, this is great for braces because the powered liquid rinse goes places the braces prevent a brush from reaching.

I will say that a lower guard will feel more natural, however I chose an upper guard because I am missing two molars that I am in process of having implants to replace so I didn't want to get a guard then have to get another one. It stays in place just fine, just bite hard on the impression mold to get a good tight fit.

After the teeth are positioned correctly by an orthodontist, this retainer could keep the teeth in position as long as your daughter wears it every night. I noticed when I wore a retainer that the teeth want to return to the former position and skipping use of the retainer will make it difficult if not impossible to fit the retainer over the teeth again. If you were to use it now, without the orthodontist to position the teeth, it would keep them in the position they are in now. Again, it must be worn every night. Be sure to use the material before it hardens, that was my problem - it hardens quickly and then you can't use it. You'd have to order more material and try again.

I would think so, as long as the gums aren't extra sensitive. I don't have many myself and I do fine! You should be fine!
