OrthoDots CLEAR – 24-Hour Protection | Sticks Better than Dental Wax | Moisture Activated Braces Wax Alternative for Pain Caused by Braces, Clear Aligner Trays, and Other Orthodontic Appliances

These things are a life saver, and much, much better than wax. They do stick well to the bracket surface, or even wires, and last through eating and sleeping. Wax just doesn't stick well, and I never got the hang of it. These dots are also clear, so that you can see your lovely brace colors through them. I don't like yellowish wax, as it just looks like I have nasty food stuck on my teeth. These worked well, and I'm thankful.

I was skeptical that these would work. They were pricey, especially when the orthodontist gives you free wax. But my son has one tooth that sticks out in front of other teeth, and I was worried that the brackets would rub on his gums, so I bought them to keep on standby in case he needed them. He has ceramic braces, and on the third day of having them, that one spot was really bugging him. The wax just wasn't sticking, so we got these out to try. I tried to get one to stick but had trouble; he got a second one out and got it to stick immediately. It stuck so well, in fact, that it has now been on for about 12 hours! It has stayed on through two showers, lots of talking, and three meals! When it lasts that long, it makes it much more worth the value! Very impressed!

I just put them on at 7am but love them already so much more than the wax. Only issue I had was getting them on the end brackets on the left side due to irritation and swelling of my cheek. My mouth feels much better and they do stick as instructed. Love that I can see the color of my braces and that nothing feels like it is irritating my lower lip or cheeks anymore. They did tear a tiny bit when trying to initially put it on the ones with hooks but I already can tell the difference between these and the wax. I love how they are activated by saliva. They are big enough to cover 2 brackets close to each other but small enough that its not bulky. Definitely will be buying more for my journey as needed.

What a waste of money. This was purchased because it was marketed as better than the wax for adhesion. It disintegrated and fell off in minutes. The wax you buy for $2.50 is so much better than the $13.29 I spent. To add insult it’s not even eligible for a refund. Used one “dot” which is a cube of wax. Very disappointed. Not ever buying again. Save your money. It would be cheaper to precut your wax strips into small cubes it’s the same nonsense and take the savings and buy yourself a latte.

I broke the bonding on one side of my permanent retainer and needed something to help keep it in place so that it wouldn’t cause sores. We are talking about something on the back of my teeth so keep that in mind. These are very easy to open and use, they stick great, and feel a little softer than traditional dental wax. I also think they stick better. I had my first one on for 5 hours and then it came off while I ate. I think some of that is due to the movement of the actual retainer. I can’t speak to how well it would stay on the front of a tooth while eating. Ultimately, I think a 24 hour application is a stretch, but I do think it’ll last for as long as you aren’t eating (or eating things you don’t really need to chew). Maybe a bit expensive for what it is, but I’d buy it again if I needed something like this in the future. Oh and no taste.

Recently got metal braces top and bottom. Having a lot of issue with hooks causing sores in my mouth. The issues are noth the same daily. So one may heal and I will not need wax then a couple days past anf then I need it again due to pain and irritation. Some days I need wax on 1 bracket or days I may have wax on 5 brackets. I ordered these thinking it would be easier because I am using a lot wax daily. The only good thing was you just peel back film and dot is all ready to be placed. However, I find the little box of wax sticks better then these dots and depending on if you need to take wax out you can easily reuse and easily put back regular wax. These dots do stick as well and can not be reshaped and reused at all should you need to take it out and put it back. The wax feels like a dense wax substance and these dots feel like jelly. I found no real difference in how they feel in my mouth. I bought a couple boxes but earlier today I ordered 6 boxes of the little boxes with the 4 sticks. I love that better. And if you are like me and using wax daily the easier and quicker it gets to get the wax out in right amout and get it shaped and placed.

These are very helpful, and easy to use! I had no trouble with it sticking/staying in place. Literally placed it on a bracket and hook that was causing pain in two seconds, and got comfort immediately. It was also easy to remove when needed. I appreciate the individual packaging too. Would recommend especially when starting braces!

If it wasn't for these ortho dots, I would have needed these braces off. They go right on and actually stick. They cause all the cheek pain and stabs from the braces to go instantly away! These are exactly what I needed.

indeed sticks better than most others ive tried

Ik krijg de plakkers al niet heel van de verpakking af. Plakker plaatsen gaat ook niet. Plakt niet. Ik vrees dat deze overdatum zijn of zoiets. Jammer. Retourneren is te complex dus laat maar. Ik ga het ook niet opnieuw proberen. Jammer.

Great. Stuck on as states.

سيء لايلتصق بالتقويم
