Fantastic Product!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Secure Smile Cosmetic Dentures False Teeth Novelty (Toy)
Absolutely wonderful product! Fitting was very easy. Unlike the Imako (which I think is horrible and was a total waste of my money) the Secure Smile is made from dental acrylic, so you must first heat the teeth and form to the curve of your own teeth, then apply the melted thermoplastic and do the final fit. Water MUST be heated just to the point of boing or you will not get proper melt and adhesion. Once fitted these teeth look great! Far more realistic than the Imako. Definitely much more attention to detail tooth shape and gum color, most likely because they were actually designed by a dentist. The acrylic doesn't stain like the soft Imako material, and even thought you're not really supposed to, I have eaten with the Secure Smile in place when a client asked me to lunch. I would never even consider it with the Imako. It is upsetting to see this product listed as a toy. I think the Secure Smile teeth are a serious product that can change your life, while the Imako definitely looks like a toy.

These teeth aren't toys. They are a perfect alternative for a nice looking smile for people who have teeth problems.
These teeth are wonderful! Very easy to use and fit. You will have to spend a little bit of time working with them to get the perfect fit for your own mouth, but when you get it right you will know it by the feel. The teeth and thermal beads are easily reheated over and over till you get the perfect fit with no problems at all. Make sure the water is hot enough. Follow the easy instructions and you should be very happy with these, especially if you have teeth problems. The more you wear them the more comfortable they become. It's just getting use to them. My teeth and mouth are quite small so I had to actually file and sand these teeth down a bit to get a comfortable fit for myself. That was very easy to do with a couple of artist files and 400 grit sandpaper. You could probably use a fingernail file too. I made them a bit thinner also to get a perfect comfortable fit for my mouth. Just be careful not to get them too thin. They are made of dental acrylic material which is very easy to work with if you do need to adjust them. Filing worked best for me. Just make sure that you only file and sand on the back of them and NEVER touch the front of these teeth as the front is perfect looking for real teeth and gums. Once the front is scratched that will remain forever. So be very careful. I'm sure that it is not recommended to alter these teeth but I just wanted to say that it can be done if you need to... just be patient and very careful. Make small adjustments at a time. If you want to have a perfect smile again it will be well worth it. Happy smiling to all who try. I am so thrilled to be able to smile again.

Secure Smile is a dental prosthesis that is more durable that Imaku, and looks more realistic. It is very fragile and hard to fit correctly. The teeth, even though stated "small to medium" are really quite large! The company needs to make a much smaller version so we who buy this product don't look like horses! However, it seems to be the best low cost option for cosmetic teeth available...

This review is from: Secure Smile Cosmetic Dentures False Teeth Novelty (Toy)
Prior to getting this product, I was using the Imako cosmetic teeth. They were OK but they stained easily and were difficult to fit due to their flimsy material. I am missing bicuspids and incisors now. I knew I could not get another shell as they would be harder to fit this time around.
After seeing a comparison of Imako and Secure Smile, I was convinced to give this a try. The results are amazing! The instructions were perspicuous and detailed. The durability of this product allowed me to fit this within 10 minutes. I read a bad review about the thermoplastic not sticking so I filed down the back to roughen the surface before using the fitting material. I am somewhat mechanically inclined so I found this process to be simple. If you are impatient, or not willing to put in the effort it requires to do your own fitting, this product is not for you. The color of the teeth are as realistic as it gets! These look better than dentures I have seen out there. This product is comfortable too, they feel like real teeth. This item should not be listed as a toy, by comparison and experience, I can say the Imako is. Shipping was faster than expected, I ordered this on Wednesday afternoon and they arrived here on Friday (California to Florida within 48 hours!) WOW! Thanks for proficient and timely service! I would highly recommend this "Modern Day MIRACLE" to anyone who feels guilt or shame with the appearance of their teeth. You do not have to spend a fortune at the dentist office to have that Hollywood smile! This was money well spent and I will be looking forward to doing business with this retailer again! Thank you Dr. Baily! You have given me a reason to SMILE!

This review is from: Secure Smile Cosmetic Dentures False Teeth Novelty (Toy)
First off I want to say that I am a real person - not a paid actor or tied with this company in any way shape or form even though it may sound like it in my review. This product is awesome. And I will tell you why. I suffer from bone loss in my jaw/teeth, it is a hereditary condition. I also suffer with bad gums due to this condition. When one of my teeth starts to get loose I know its only a matter of time before the gums start to recede and reject. I started losing teeth within the past 4 years, there is nothing that the doctors or dentists can do about it besides evasive surgery and false implants. I refuse to go this route while I have some teeth left to anchor something in place. By happen-chance after losing two of my front teeth (showing my obvious condition) I stumbled onto IMAKO teeth - and gave it a try.. Looked kind of good although it also gave a thin-tooth appearance because there is no molding to the shape of the teeth.. The teeth also started to yellow very badly, and the manufacturer even states that it will discolor through exposure to sunlight. I was also very dis-satisfied because I could not eat even soft foods with them in. I then found these teeth - and tried almost all the different styles (this one , which is small to medium, being the best looking and fitting). There is a medium to large - and provides a little more spacing between the teeth. It may look good on some people, but not on me. ~ My expectations were actually exceeded after I finally got the teeth to mold and anchor in comfortably to my existing teeth. But there is a drawback, so for anyone reading this please note the following. If you intend to try and eat and drink with these in, there is not enough molding pellets which come with the teeth to give you enough filler to eat without fear of breaking the teeth or it being uncomfortable. Do yourself a favor and buy a container of "InstaMorph" molding pellets, also found on Amazon. You can use both together, but I wouldnt use too much - perhaps measure out an equal second of what comes with the teeth. Do the molding process just as the instructions that come with the teeth tell you to do and use the extra molding material to strengthen up the empty spaces where your teeth are missing, and any gaps between your teeth. All in all , you will want to make more of a mold around your teeth and not just in between them.. Do not get discouraged, it took me about 20 attempts to heat and cool the molding to get a really comfortable fit, and also one that I could slide out of my mouth comfortably with a little effort. Its worth it once you get the proper fit and arc in your mouth.. NOONE can tell that my teeth are not real, co workers ask me if I have had work done on my teeth and my answer is an honest - yes. They think it looks really good, and think it's real When you are confronted with a situation of eating with the teeth.. pick softer foods, do not try to chew a steak up - believe me, it doesnt work very well and can get painful.. Always let your food cool a little before biting into it - if the molding starts feeling a little soft or gel-like, swish some cold water over them and wait a little longer until the food cools more. The same needs to apply for liquids - warm is ok, hot is a nono unless you want the teeth to move out of place, dislodge, or have the moldable plastic hanging down in your mouth (not a pretty sight) After eating, take a trip to the bathroom - remove the teeth and rinse out any debris under the sink with lukewarm or cold water (again, dont heat them up). Also rinse out your mouth because food left in your gums or between teeth will start getting painful after a while and you will have to take them out again. Do your refitting in the bathroom by the sink, because you can if necessary heat the molding up a little if there is plastic showing anywhere. ~ All in all, these teeth are absolutely wonderful - brush them normally and rinse them with mouthwash. If the molding starts getting to be dirty looking, and you bought what I suggested, the InstaMorph - you can remove the old molding and replace it with new molding any time. And keep smiling, you deserve it :) :) :) :)

Yes, it requires some effort and patience to get these to work, but they do work great. I've been using these for about 6 months now and am about to order my third. I wear them every day and eat with them on many occasions and they hold up well. The first one started to crack down the middle from all the wear and tear. My second one is holding up, but I'm worried that the same will happen soon. Plus I sometimes drink coffee with these on and they definitely have yellowed some. It's true that these are not pearl white when you get them, but they seemed to have a natural look to them to me. A big improvement from what I look like right now without them as I save up to get my dental work completed. My first one was a large and I took other reviewers advice and got the small on the second order and was happier with the fit and look of the small, so I would recommend the same for most people.

I don't understand why this is called a toy. It feels and looks like it was made for my mouth and teeth. With just a small bit of moderation, I got back the smile I had 25 years ago.I really don't believe expensive caps or veneers could look any better. The greatest benefit of all, it took years off the appearance of my face. I can barely see the lines above my lips anymore. I can't believe I only paid 15.00 for something that has changed my appearance and confidence this much. I bought the small to medium teeth, so I can't commit about the large size.

The three times I purchased these teeth on a friend's recommendation, they arrived broken into three or four pieces. I think it's time the company realized their packaging is not protecting a fragile product.

I am in the process of having dental implants done. I was wearing a temporary partial, but lost it after removing it at a restaurant. I folded it in a napkin, and it got thrown out accidentally. Well, I didn't want to purchase another partial for several hundred dollars when my dental work would be completed in just a few months. But I also don't want the embarrassment of showing my missing teeth! I actually have great front teeth, but the top side teeth were pulled.
I ordered these knowing I would have to put some effort into making them work. What I did was file down the piece until it was quite thin. I then cut a piece of 3 teeth out. I secured one false tooth to my molar, and the 2 other false teeth covered the gap of my missing teeth. It looks so much better, and feels very secure. It actually takes a bit of effort to remove, so I feel confident in wearing it. I don't imagine I will wear this every day, but will do so when I have a meeting or social event to attend.

No complaints with this purchase. They are just what they claim to be. I just couldn't make them work for me, and that's ok considering the very fair price.
