How To Use A Dental Dam As A Barrier For Oral Sex

Dental dams are latex or polyurethane sheets used between the mouth and vagina or anus during oral sex.

Dental Dam Dos and Don’ts

• DO use a new latex or polyurethane dental dam every time you have oral sex.
• DO read the package and check the expiration date.
• DO make sure there are no tears or defects.
• DO put on before starting oral sex and keep it on until finished.
• DO use water-based or silicone-based lubricant to prevent breakage.
• DO store dental dams in a cool, dry place.

• DON’T reuse a dental dam.
• DON’T stretch a dental dam, as this can cause it to tear.
• DON’T use nonoxynol-9 (a spermicide), which can cause irritation.
• DON’T use oil-based products like baby oil, lotion, petroleum jelly, or cooking oil because they will cause the dental dam to break.
• DON’T flush dental dams down the toilet as they may clog it.

How to use your new dental dam:

• Place dental dam flat to cover vaginal opening or anus.
