How You Use It Is Up To You
I have had problems with my teeth since childhood. I won't go into details. Even the dentist could do limited improvement without really expensive solutions. It only got worse as I got older. I bought this product in the small size first. At first I was frustrated because the instructions sucked. I found some YouTube videos that help me out. I created a wrap around (my idea). It looked great. But they were stuck to my teeth. After about 3 weeks I needed to get them off as they were turning color. I put a napkin in my mouth and used an eye dropper to apply boiling water in small doses, which dropped into the napkin. Didn't want boiling water to be dropping into my mouth. The boiling water softened them up and I could get them off. As you might suspect my mouth smelled like a sewer.
Afterwards I thought of making something temporary. A set that I could take in and out and wash out once or several times daily. Wash out my mouth too. I didn't wrap them too far in the back. This way they would be easier to take off and put back on. Once dry I wiggled them off. It works great. I bought a larger bag (not this one) of the beads so I would have more product to work with.. I can eat with this wrap and wear them all day. This is a life saver. At a little distance you can barely tell them from real teeth. Of course you have to take the time to do trial and error in making a wrap or repair. It's a bit of sculpting type work. But it's worth it.
You'll want a dental tool or something similar to create the tooth lines, appearing to be separate teeth. I'm getting better at creating a set. I figure that each set from my bag costs less than 25 cents to make. A great deal. I could never figure out how to make the veneers work. If reviewers tell you this product doesn't work they just haven't found the right solution. Of course not everyone needs or wants a wrap. You situation might be one tooth. This may not fix every person's problem, but it definitely can fix problems. You have to use some creativity. There really should be a Facebook group or something to share implementation strategies. (Sorry, I'm too busy to start that.)
In the first video segment I show you non-stop from my bare teeth to putting on my self made wrap. You can see this is for real. In the second I show how I would apply boiling water If I can't get a wrap off because I made it too firm. For bottom teeth one might want to dip a cloth in boiling water to get any wrap off that is on too strong. The key is to think out your design. You have a product that you can mold for your purposes. How you use it is up to you. I'm giving 4 star because the instructions sucked. But this product is 5 star in my life.
