What is a dental dam?
By Amanda Johnson
Dental Dam, also known as vaginal dam, is very popular and much safer oral sex tool. It is a six inch square piece of thin latex, which acts as a barrier between the vagina and the mouth. It is widely available in drug stores and most pharmacy chains. It is a very effective measure to prevent infections from the possibly harmful vaginal or anal secretions.
Function
Dental Dam prevents possible transmission of sexual infections from vagina to mouth or mouth to vagina. It is stretched across the women's vagina to prevent exchange of bodily fluid. It gives you protection against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) while performing oral sex on a woman.
How does it Work?
It is not very difficult to use. First of all you rinse the dam to remove the talk. Then make the dam dry with the help of a towel or let it air dry. The talk on the dam should not enter into the vagina. Now stretch the dam across the vagina or anus. Earlier it was considered one partner should always hold the dam and other would perform. Now there is an alternative, some dental dam are made with strips that keep the dam in correct place so that you can better enjoy. The dam itself is not lubricated. So, it is recommended that you use water-based lubricant on the vagina to keep the dam in correct place and increases the feeling.
Precautions
There are certain precautions that you must take while using dental dam. For example, it is strongly recommended not to share the same dam again. If you are practicing both oral-vaginal and oral-anal sex it is always prudent to use separate dams. This ensures safety. On the other hand, if you reuse the same dam, the anal organisms can cause infection in the vagina. Therefore, always remember to use a new dam each time you have an oral sex. What is more, you can use any material in order to free your hand during oral sex, but always make sure that the materials are washable and have no sharp edges.
How Enjoying or Annoying is to Use the Dam?
Many people hesitate using the same because they fear that because of the sheet of latex the normally intense stimulation of the tongue will be reduced. True, the feeling of a tongue is a different thing than the feeling of a dental dam, but it does not really affect the enjoyment or stimulation. If you want to provide your partner with a new type of stimulation, it is prudent to use plenty of water-based lubricant by playing with the latex in his/her mouth.
Overall, the use of dam is up to you. It is entirely your choice what level of protection you decide to use, but the use of dental dams are recommended at all times. In order to prevent infections from the possible infectious secretions from both the vagina and anus, the dental dam is a perfect choice and a more popular safer sex tool.
