OrthoDots CLEAR (24 Count) - Moisture Activated, Silicone Dental Wax Alternative for Pain Caused by Braces. OrthoDots Stick Better & Stay on Longer than Orthodontic Wax (2 packs of 12 Count)

I have had other wax in small plastic cases that you break of and you get way more wax . The idea of individual perfectly sized dots of wax appealed. I envisioned something like a sheet of easy to grap dots, but the dots are individually wrapped. That is fine and hygienic. The problem is the square is larger than I'd use for one spot or even for the two places I'd use - one dose. So it has to be broken up and takes more effort to do so and you get way less wax. The Genuine Orthodontic Wax sells 9 cases for $11 and each case has as much as one box of these or more. But this is fine. Wax is a bit hard so I have to melt it a bit between my fingers before putting it in or keep my finger on it to get it to stay. There is better out there.

A little disappointed. I’ve had problems with dental wax sticking on the brackets on my farthest back molars because it’s so hard to keep it dry while applying the wax. I figured I would try this because it said it was moisture activated. It did ok on the top molar bracket, but It won’t stick to the bottom one. I had to go through 3 of the dots before I finally got one to semi-stay (I followed the package instructions based on the side it said was moisture activated). That bottom bracket is the most problematic for pain and irritation, so I guess the search continues for a good wax 😒. The one plus is they are convenient pre-cut individually wrapped pieces.

This get the job but I'd use them as a last resort. First of all, they break if too much pressure is applied when they're being placed onto the braces. I don't see them as lasting longer than the other types of wax either. I liked the idea they had when they created them but the regular wax will work just as much or even better, they're cheaper and you'll get more to use.Sorry, this was a no for me.

These worked great! These are much better than the wax you get from your orthodontist's office. They even stay put through eating. I have slept with these on and they stay in place throughout the night. I have to remember to remove them while brushing my teeth because they will even stay in place through brushing. These will even stick to your teeth even if your teeth are not dry.

Awful. Stick to gum brand. These are hard to put on, don’t stick as well. I’ve had them fall off multiple times and wear through on a sharp bracket cutting my cheek. The gum brand I dont even notice in my mouth. These slip and wear within an hour of placement. Box says “better than gum”. Tell that to my cheeks.

I love these, I just got braces and have been using regular wax which makes it look like I have gum stuck on my teeth. These clear dots are barely visible and makes me more confident when smiling. They are a little pricey so I'll use them on the weekends or special events.

These are great. Way smoother than the typical ortho wax and you can split it i half and it keeps its shape. I wish there were more in a pack but its doable. I can wat and drink with it no problems and they stayed on all day. Great product.

These have saved my mouth! I’m an adult with new braces and my mouth was so sore I couldn’t eat or talk. Wax helped a little, but these are wonderful. Total relief. Expensive, but worth it. I’ll just do without one coffee a day and call it even!
