Re: Diving with linguals
I feel like I might as well update as more information might help others make a more informed decision. Diving was no problem, although I had to be a bit more careful biting down on the mouth piece (often just used my hand to relieve some of the pressure and make the mouth piece move around less). L...

Re: Diving with linguals
(cant find the edit button). Do keep in mind I only have linguals on the top, so experiences with both or bottom only might be very different. BTW the one person I asked if my speech was affected (after he offered me a whole carrot as a late night snack :lol: and obv had to say no thx ) hadn't notic...

Diving with linguals
Hi, I couldn't really find an answer googling but has anyone tried diving or snorkeling with linguals (I have top only), think it'll be ok but would be good to have a more definitive answer.

Re: Incognito Fitting Experiences..
The sand blasting was not a big deal, they warned me about a bad taste if I swallowed at any point but wasn't a problem either. I only have top linguals but was dozing off and nearly fell asleep while they fitted the braces. Apparently I wouldn't have been the first to fall asleep in the chair becau...
