Temptooth#1 Seller Trusted Patented Temporary Tooth Replacement Product

Absolute lifesaver. My temporary bridge fell out and I can't afford getting permanents. So I made my own bridge with Temp Tooth, eventhough the product is not sold for that purpose, as you can see from my photos, I brilliantly crafted my own bridge thanks to this product. It helps that I have the 2 stub teeth, but basically I used 14 beads for each tooth. I did one tooth at a time starting with the stub and worked my way across. The key to making a perfect bridge with this product is don't try to shape the tooth perfectly in your mouth, because you're going to do the shaping with a straight razor blade. Just get it to fit and get it the right size. The size and fit is the most important. Once you make the first tooth, put it in the freezer for about 30 seconds. That causes it to expand and solidify. Step 2, put the tooth you just made back in your mouth. If you did it right, it should go on the stub perfectly. Step 3, do the same thing for the other stub. Now you should have two false teeth that fit perfectly over your stubs. Now the fun part: creating the middle tooth and making the bridge. All you have to do is put the 2 false teeth in your mouth and hold them in place with your bottom teeth, then make the middle tooth and shape it between the outer 2 teeth. When you're doing this, make sure the middle one is somewhat hot so that it will stick to the 2 outer teeth. Also, make sure the teeth are in relative proportions to regular teeth. Remember, they don't have to be perfect at this stage, because you're going to make them perfect later with the razor blade. Now, once you got the middle tooth in between the other 2 teeth, pull all three out altogether slowly and make sure they stay together because they will be loosely stuck together. Take a tweezer and grip one end of the bridge with the tweezer. Then, dip the entire bridge in boiling hot water for 2 seconds. This will cause the bridge to stick together more tightly. Take it out, blow it real quick, and then immediately put it back in your mouth so that you don't lose the shape. Use your index and thumb fingers to press the front and back part together to get a tighter grip on your stubs. Also push on the part next to your upper gums to make sure that part is firmly against your gums.Repeat this step of putting the bridge in boiling hot water 1 or 2 times to make sure the entire unit is firmly stuck together. After each time, put it back in your mouth to reshape it. Now, put the whole unit in the freezer for about 30 seconds. This will cause it to solidify and expand. When you take it out, now you have a fully functioning bridge. All you have to do now is shape it to perfection with a razor blade. Just chisel two outer grooves to create the appearance of connecting teeth. And then cut away at the bottom of the bridge to create the appearance of the bottom of each teeth. If you get confused, you can look at a picture online of some teeth to get an idea of how it should look. The most important part of your chiseling is the bite. So if you have an overbite like me, you will need to cut away at the back of the bridge to give your bottom teeth room to chew. You may also want to cut away at the back of the bridge to give your tongue some room and to make it feel natural. If you did everything right, you will notice that the bridge stays in your mouth without falling out. However you will need some fixodent to make it hold all day for talking and chewing. To change the color, I soaked it in Lipton Black Tea for about 6 hours, and it came out perfectly like my other teeth. However, as you can see from my photos, the color will go away once you brush it. Anyway, what a lifesaver. I've talked to people in person and no one ever noticed the difference. This product easily saved me $3,000 that I don't have. Whoever made this product is a GENIUS!!! Thank you.

Confession-I hate dentists and thus have dreadful teeth. Oh, I brush, rinse, floss and bleach, but over the years, I have lost an upper side molar and a lower front tooth (first molar) and have made it a point not to smile with an open mouth. When I was younger and had all my teeth, folks always complimented me on my "pretty smile," but it had not been pretty for decades. I thought I was fooling everyone with the closed mouth grin, but several weeks ago, during a lull in a meeting, my boss said to me with concern, "oh, did you hurt your tooth?" I know from experience that once you spot a flaw in someone's looks, your eyes gravitate to that area whenever you see them and I knew my ruse was over and it was time to get serious and plug the gaps. I also knew that lacking dental insurance and disposable funds in the neighborhood of $35,000, Temptooth was going to (hopefully) be the savior of my smile.I had ordered the Temptooth kit about a month before my boss's comment, but had been too intimidated to try it. Yes, I know that's stupid, but as I said, this is a confession. I took 2 extra days off to make my Memorial Day weekend a long one, and figured since I had time on my hands, I could have a go at tooth making, so that's what I did.PLEASE NOTE-IF YOU ARE GOING TO MAKE A REPLACEMENT TOOTH-ALLOW YOURSELF PLENTY OF TIME AND BE PATIENT!At first, this process did not go well. I did not get the water hot enough and I used too many beads. Remember-with the beads, less is more, and when tooth making, thinner is better.The beads would not get clear in the water because it was not hot enough and I kept making trips to the microwave to make the water hotter in 10 second intervals. I also put the beads in a spoon to make them easier to find when they were ready to shape. Finally I achieved the right water temperature, the beads became translucent and I molded them into a tooth-ish shape the width of my gap before putting the translucent material into the space in my gums. Since I used too many beads, I had far more material than I needed and the tooth I molded for the lower gap had way too big a "flipper" on it, making it uncomfortable and awkward in my mouth. I took it out before it hardened, put it back into the spoon and set it aside, heated the water again and dunked the tooth into it. As soon as it turned into a translucent glob in the spoon, I pinched off about half of the material and put it aside to use for the second replacement tooth. Back to the bathroom mirror to shape and mold and this time there was just enough material to make something that was pretty realistic and comfortable. I took it out, ran it under cold water to harden it and popped it back in my mouth and smiled. Sweet Mother Mary and all the saints! I had a tooth! I had not planned on making a tooth this weekend to fill the second (upper) gap, but with one gap closed, the remaining one looked even worse, so I quickly changed my mind and mentally chided myself for my laziness.Since I had the bit of practice with the first tooth, making the second was easier and less fraught with anxiety. I now had a gapless smile for the first time in I can't remember how long.I watched a few YouTube videos earlier in the day, prior to making my own teeth. These were made by TempTooth users, so I followed the recommendations of some folks and was using hot water with a tea bag in it to color the beads. Guess what? The tea water seems to have no impact on the color of the replacement teeth. Even using hot tea they come out a very bright white so unless you have gleaming white choppers, you can't just mold and go. As I write, I am soaking both replacement teeth in a strong coffee and cool water bath. I am sure it will be sometime, if not overnight, before these teeth go from Chiclet white to a more realistic ivory, but I have the time to see it through.EDIT-Overnight in strong coffee did the trick with color match.I was worried about getting the temp teeth back in after they hardened, but they pop in and out with ease and insertion and removal does not cause any discomfort. Remember, if the replacement tooth is not to your liking in any way, you do not have to start over from scratch. You simply soften it in hot water and make adjustments until it is to your comfort and satisfaction. If you are creative and like to shape, grind, smooth and color the tooth, allow yourself additional time to do so. Making a replacement tooth is a process I cannot imagine doing at the last minute-like an hour before an interview or social event. If you are considering placing an order, give yourself a weekend to make a replacement tooth so you have plenty of time to make one and perfect it to the best your abilities allow.There were questions as to eating with a TempTooth. I had a snack and dinner the day I made the teeth and had no problems eating with the replacement teeth. Same the next day, though I found myself being a bit more careful chewing. I don't think I would eat corn on the cob or anything very, very hard like a crisp apple or any very sticky candy while wearing my TempTooth replacements.In all honesty, I don't know how well these would do to realistically replace a front tooth, but that is not the issue I had to deal with. Both my lost teeth are in places that are partly concealed by my lips most of the time, so when I am talking, one would only catch a glimpse of the replacement teeth. When smiling, they are both more apparent, but in social situations, "polite" distance keeps anyone from examining my teeth too closely, and the most important thing (to me) is that I will no longer have black spaces when my mouth is open and need not worry that people are judging me for my lack of teeth.Even though I have only worn these teeth at home so far, I already feel more confident and attractive than I have in many, many years. I look forward to lots of carefree laughing and smiling again.
