Small mouth (click to see more)
People imagine that they have a small mouth and Oralift may not fit them.
This is not the case, even if you have had teeth extracted for orthodontic purposes Oralift will still fit your mouth.
Dr Mohindra, the inventor, has used Oralift for over 20 years in his dental practice and never came across a mouth that was too small. He has even used the device in a child's mouth - obviously not for cosmetic purposes.
It should also be noted that although it may be difficult to close the lips when the unmoulded device is in the mouth, the device is easier to wear after moulding.
This is because when you bite down on the device to mould it, the thermoplastic material 'gives' - it changes shape and spreads a little, so the device then feels smaller and therefore easier to wear.
