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.

Where have these been?! I have crowded teeth with braces. One tooth sticks out farther than others and it constantly rubs on my inner gums and irritates them. I always have to have wax on them. But I was so annoyed with drying off the bracket, then trying to get the wax to fix. Then comes along orthodots. SUPER easy to apply, they stick great and no need to dry off bracket. They truly are clear too, not hazy like wax. Only slight negative is I wish they came in smaller sizes because sometimes it’s a tad too big for 1 bracket. But still way better than wax or the silicone earplugs. My package also came with a few braces flossers in a nice travel case. Will definitely put those to use too!!

These are amazing and a total game changer for orthodontics. They are thinner, easier to apply and last much longer than traditional wax. I had TADs placed, the screws are sharp and cut up the inside of my lip. Wax was difficult to place and needed to be changed every time I ate. The orthoDots have been amazing, I’m able to place them quickly and they last all day (during 3 meals) with no issue. They are expensive but to me they are definitely worth it.

This was a life savor no lie! My mouth was all cut up inside from my new braces. I tried a guard, that was horrible, didn't work. And the wax they gave me did ok but I was still getting cut. But these things were amazing. They really work. I finally got some relief and was able to eat a little since I hadn't been able to eat anything since I had got the braces put on 3 days ago. Great product. Highly recommend. Also when I used wax it got stuck in my braces, was hard to get off when I wanted to change it, and the wax didn't stick well. Some of these did tear when trying to get out the package so that was a negative. But still a great purchase. You can't stick these on like u would wax. U don't press it with one finger. You have to kinda fold it in half over the bracket, like a taco. They stayed through eating, drinking coffee, and sleeping all night. When taking them off, they come off while ...not nasty like wax getting stuck in all the pieces. And they are clear, which is another plus. I couldn't use the wax when I went to work on my front brackets bc it looked gross like I stuff stuck in my teeth. But these I can use and u can't see them

I got invisalign. It has rough edges that irritate my tongue in several spots. I tried using these because it said it sticks better than dental wax. I wish I would have just gotten dental/brace wax instead. The dots are difficult to pinch onto the spots I need it to be. They either break apart or adhere on one half but slip around on the other which causes it to slip off entirely anyway. The texture makes me want to bite down on it. Did I have a moment or two of relief when I finally got some to stick? Yes. Did it stay on long enough for my mouth to become less irritated? No.

I am on the braces journey, so these are life savers. I switch between wax and these. They stick a little better and stay in place. They're in small squares so sometimes I split one in half to cover two brackets as they are a little thick. All in all they work well and save my cheeks from the pokey parts.

I find dental wax really annoying, so I felt desperate enough to give these a try in spite of the price. Unfortunately, for me they didn't really live up to the hype. I have four brackets that can poke me. The OrthoDots were not super easy to apply. A little easier than was, probably. I'm sure it gets easier with practice, but the same applies to wax. The OrthoDots on my molars didn't stay on very well at all (probably because my top molars are very close and push them off). The OrthoDot on one of my front brackets stayed on until I took it off to brush, but the other came off earlier in the day. I bought a pack of 6 boxes, and I'm sure I'll use the rest of them during my time with braces, but I won't buy more. Fortunately I don't feel the need to cover my brackets all the time.

I'm a dental hygienist and at 42 am now in traditional bracket/wire braces. I'll be honest, generally speaking the first few days are extremely uncomfortable so the best thing for that pain/disconfort is over the counter meds and cold/soft foods. That being said, I'm very familiar with dental wax and it's applications and found like many focus groups that it can be messy and hard to work with/keep on. This is such a wonderful alternative and although I only show one in the photo for reference, they are in every area I had wear spots and they have eliminated the irritation! They are a bit slippery like silicone when you first put them in, but I might recommend resting them on your tongue to get them moist (which is on the directions) and if you're able, use your tongue to push it against the area you want relief and then grip and press with your fingers onto the bracket/band prongs/etc. The only trade off of course is the wasteful packaging and fact that you'll have to change these EVERYTIME you eat so they don't harbor bacteria that can cause cavities. They turn into a wax like material that comes off as easily as traditional wax when removing. They're a bit pricey, but for the first few days/weeks until your cheek tissue develops resiliency against the new appliance in your mouth....they are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! 😁

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.

Fantastic item, made my braces journey alot easier! This is way better than wax. Having trouble with your wax staying on? Your wax keeps falling off all the time? Buy this!!! 100% recommend it.

سيء لايلتصق بالتقويم

It really doesn't stay while eating food as stated. We could instead use normal dental wax at an affordable price that is also easy to keep on braces and remove. Dental wax can remove and reuse. This one won't stay while eating and cannot be re-used.
