How long does each tooth last after you make it? I had my top front partial for 8 years, and I accidently threw it in the trash!

These plastic teeth last for a period of months. Constant biting pressure on them can cause them to somewhat push down and slightly change shape at the top, so you would probably want to make a new one every three months.

Greetings; My temp teeth (I made three) have lasted about a year, however, I don't wear them daily. So while wearing one of them perhaps just one day a week or so, they have lasted about a year. But I would guess, that it's possible that with daily wear, and the wear and tear of putting them in and taking them out, they won't last that long. The kit however, does allow a person to make more than one. Also, one cannot eat (at least I couldn't and they don't recommend it) with the Temp in. It should be removed for eating, drinking etc. which is a little inconvenient. But otherwise for the price, I find it a pretty good replacement for a lost tooth. All best.

If you maintain them and don't let them to built up with calcium before you clean them they will last up to four years. If you scratch the titanium plates by trying to clean them in the wrong way it won't last very long at all.

I haven't had that problem so far, but the teeth on my unit are still very sharp. I can see where that could happen after the teeth get dull. The only issue I have had is that when a tooth gets and nick in it, finding which tooth to turn can be difficult.

When kept in cool and dry storage, I've kept them for at least several months. Don not expose to warm temps like keeping in your car. The gum seems to break down and when you pop it in your mouth it just melts.

Mine lasts for about 2 months easy. My setting is "Clean" so it runs for 2 minutes each time I brush.

I recently got instamorph and It doesnt expand like I hear temp tooth does on cooling so it is hard to get it to stay in place, I am still working on something that will work better. I would be embarrassed if it fell out while talking to a client. It does stain well and is very easy to mold into a real looking tooth. it is fun to play with as well.

The issue with the product is it needs a tooth nearby enough so the back of the product can be folded over to hold the temp tooth in place. I lost a cap and then accidentally swallowed the ajoining post, since there was enough of both teeth left in my mouth i was able to make the two replacements very easily, but again the product needs something to hold onto to keep it in place. The temp tooth/ teeth will be extremely white when you make them, they suggest dyeing the product with tea, i however found just with regular use of being in your mouth that they do change color with products you eat making them look closer in color to your other teeth. Hope this helps answer your question. The issue with the product is it needs a tooth nearby enough so the back of the product can be folded over to hold the temp tooth in place.

I grind my front teeth as well, and the gap these appliances create at the back is sufficient to keep that from happening. However, I can definitely tell when it's time for me to throw away an old guard and use a new one because my front teeth will start touching if I try to get more than three nights out of a single mouth guard.

I had that same thing happen to mine as well. Unfortunately these toothbrushes don't last longer than like 2 years. You will probably have to order another one. That's what I had to do. My husband has one and he's had it for almost 2 years I think so I may have to get him a new one too if that happens with his. It stinks but they are a great toothbrush in my opinion.

Hello,Thanks for contacting us. We do have a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Our 30 day guarantee starts from when you receive the guard and it can be returned for any reason during that time. We do stand behind our product and service and work with our customers. This guard is very durable and has an average lifespan of 3 years but for lighter to medium teeth grinding and clenching it can last several years longer. The lifespan is dependent on the degree of teeth grinding and clenching.

I hope this does not happen to me. I've had mine for about 6 months. After use I dry plugs on both ends so it does not deteriorate over time. I have not had to remove parts for any reason. SORRY! Best of luck.

"Spindle broke?" I have had mine for as long (in use for 3 years) and it is still going strong. I would still get another Sonicare if that happened to mine over the major competitor's.

You're lucky that your battery lasted longer than 6 months. This product has a very defective design and the batteries that are used are of very poor quality. When you contact the company to try to get a replacement, they try to hit you up for more money, so in effect they are running some type of scam. They knowingly sell a defective product but keep on doing it because they have a network of dentists who sell the product for a sizable kick back.

Mine was for at least a year into the future. Other than that I have no idea--ask the Seller, I'm just another customer here like you!

I have a love/hate relationship with Rotadent. Love the product, hate the manufacturer. I put up with the sometimes shoddy life expectancy of the brushes and instrument because I believe I get results and justify the aggravation by thinking I ultimately save in dental bills. I keep one in both my houses ( one overseas) and have gone through 4 or 5 of them. 2 to 3 years being the average life. If you believe there is a similar or better product out there drop these guys like bad habit or live with the grief.

Hi , sorry to hear about your teeth . As for the product your asking about I didn't have any luck with them at all ! But I may have did something wrong ( i'm not sure ) ? I did see some good reviews written about them , but i think there were more negative than posative . In my opinion I think you should just save your money and try to get by till you get your teeth done ( of course thats just my opinion ) . The last time i wrote this about the product i got a nasty email from the seller !!! :-) But oh well , really i think you should save your money !! But best of luck either way ...

I have mine for about a year and it is fine. It should last a long time. A little goes a long way.
