> 3 dayI’m going to make this review as thorough as possible. These fangs were AWESOME! They mold to your teeth using a material similar to what a dentist would make a night guard from. You have to mix the material and mold them on your own, but once complete they snap on/off with ease. I originally bought them for my kid but after reading that she would need to sit for 15 minutes with her mouth open for them to dry, we decided they were not for her. SCORE FOR MOM! I molded them the first time with no intention of using them for myself but more to see how much it took. It was challenging and after that first run the second time was much easier. I’ll attempt to make it easier on you too! What I learned: This is easier with help or mold them one at a time. After the first fang is in place, mixing the mold again is a pain in the...you know, because you have to keep the first one dry. With help: Mix the first batch of putty, place the fang (you want extra material in the back of the fang as well to help hold it on). Then have a partner mix the next batch for you. You have to sit with them on, mouth agape, for 15 minutes until they dry. Lay down while you wait, chin slightly up. This way you don’t feel like you’re dying because there is a puddle of drool collecting at the bottom of your mouth. There should be extra material at the top and sides, this can be trimmed so they look more legit, but don’t trim too much or they won’t be as secure, the filling is nearly invisible once it’s in your mouth. I had so much fun with these! I took them in and out all day on Halloween to scare my co-workers, then wore them all night. I ate (soft food - it was more like mushing it to the roof of my mouth, still counts), and drank (use a straw, you’re welcome) all night without them falling out once. Everyone commented how real they looked. Worth every penny.

> 3 dayThey fit ok but they’re more yellow than my teeth which is noticeable even in picture.

> 3 dayI bought these for Halloween last year. I thought the fangs were super cool and they blended in with my teeth. One problem occurred though, they kept falling out! Now my girlfriend and I both got them and had the same problem. We watched the video and followed the directions but they continued to fall off. Still for temporary use these are really cool and comfortable. Due to the falling out though I have to give it a 3/5.

> 3 dayI rarely take the time to write reviews but I was SO excited about these...and they were a total bust, at least for me. I followed the instructions for fitting to a T, and even went to their website to watch the video demo; but my fitting material did not mix properly (it just turned granular) and, when I tried to fit the teeth, all of the fitting material came out the sides and just ended up in my mouth. These teeth have a lot of great reviews so maybe its a me-and-not-them kind of thing, but I was really disappointed in the quality and experience with the fitting material. I guess Im going to be a teethless vampire for Halloween lol!

Greater than one weekThese are sooo nice they look so real. They’re hella subtle and worked out perfectly for me to be Marceline from Adventure Time for Halloween. The KEY THOUGH — is speed. With the glue you have to be pretty fast with the mixing process, application of the glue onto the tooth and then sticking it onto your own tooth. You only get four powder capsules so you basically get two tries per tooth. I had to use extra nail glue on one of my teeth (probably dumb but whatever) to keep it on for the party. I got so many compliments on them though and I didn’t have to worry about them coming out. Slight speech impairment, but I was able to bite into limes after tequila shots w them in so they pass in my book!!

> 3 dayMy first set of fangs were Dracula House brand, which I bought about 16 years ago and reused more times than I can count. Unfortunately, I lost them somehow. So when I needed fangs for this years Halloween costume, I decided to try these scarecrow brand because they were smaller. I followed the directions exactly. Let me start by saying that the overwhelming chemical smell from the liquid that you have to drop into the powder to make the adhesive mixture is sickening. And it tastes as bad as it smells. Like eating old nail polish. The 1st one went on OK. The only problem was that it wasnt a super tight fit due to the fact that all of the adhesive stuck to my fingers (and came off of the fang when I removed my fingers from my mouth). I didnt worry too much about that because the instructions said that if a tighter fit was needed to just use one of the extra capsule (which was included) to repeat the process. Well, I SHOULD HAVE worried because I could not get the second fang to set, at all - and I used up all the capsules trying. It never worked. Now, I understand that, as the directions state, all teeth are different, blah blah blah... but the Dracula house brand gave me no issues whatsoever - so its not my teeth - its the product. I ended up ordering a refill pack of the adhesive, and paying and extra $3 to have it delivered same because I was in a time crunch. My husband bought the Dracula House brand (the adhesive process is totally different), and THOSE directions said to cover your fingers and vegetable oil so that the adhesive doesnt stick to them. So I did that with the refill pack and fitted the fang that I hadnt been able to get to successfully set. It seemed to work, so then I added more adhesive to the 1st one Id initially gotten to set, but wanted a tighter fit. Its a 20 minute process from start to finish. The timer goes off, I release them with my bottom teeth and from the top of the adhesive - not pulling on the fang itself (as per the instructions), and OF COURSE, the adhesive stuck to my teeth and the fang popped right off. WASTED $30 when all is said and done. Actually, more than that because now Im going to have to go buy denture adhesive and hope it holds. And BTW, my tongue is still stinging /tingling from that chemical mixture. Gag! SO DISSATISFIED!!!

Greater than one weekSo my first try with these was awful. I followed the instructions but the first fang wouldnt even stay on for the 15 minutes that the paste is supposed to stay and harden. The second time I tried, I did exactly the same thing to prep, but kept hold of the fangs for much longer than the recommended time, just to make sure. They worked very well. You really have to follow the instructions precisely, or else it all fails. Make sure to put the fang on in one easy motion. Make sure you dont get paste in the deep middle of the fang. Let them dry for a long time. One thing that I might have done differently the second, actually successful time was that I mixed the powder and liquid together more quickly and applied it more quickly. I did in fact notice that the paste had already begun to harden in the mixing pot so that may have complicated things. As for the wear of the product, it was great and very convenient. They are not comfortable, but that is to be expected for fake teeth. They are not exceptionally uncomfortable though. You will have a slight lisp but whatever. The fangs stayed on all day. They were exceptionally easy to remove, with just a little push from the lower teeth to the back of the fangs, then a bit of wiggling down to loosen the fang from the tooth you molded it to. I was free to take it out and put it back in all day for band, eating, pictures. It was awesome. And putting them back on was super easy too, just a firm push back onto the tooth. I will say that my teeth did ache just slightly by the very end of the night, but it was well worth it. People really liked them and said they looked really legit. Overall, this is a fantastic product. If its not working for you, either your teeth shape just wont fit with these fangs, or you may havent explicitly followed the instructions. Give it another try. I highly recommend this product.

Greater than one weekI love these fangs! I think that theyre a good value considering they do last multiple wears and are custom molded to your teeth. Found them to be very comfortable. Just one tip - When you make the mixture, apply it immediately to the fangs because it dries super quickly!

> 3 dayThe fitting instructions are pretty easy to follow but the fit is a little hard to get perfect. You do get 4 attempts to get the fit right as they give you 4 capsules of the powder mix. If you mess up you can dig out the putty and re-do it. But I found that even with a really good solid fit they still fell out if I wasnt careful. It works for me because Im using them for photos or short videos. If you need a longer or stronger hold denture fixative is supposed to work really well!

> 3 dayThis product is made well, and although the idea for how the fangs stay on is a great concept the reality is they just dont snap on after the goop has set. We followed the instructions completely and during the curing processes (the first 15 minutes) the fit was great, as soon as you pop them off for the first time they no longer fit tightly. They do stay in place for the most part, but they are loose and you need to be VERY careful. I bought these after reading several reviews stating parents had used them and had them work well on their younger children, my daughter is 7 Years old. After several failed attempts, she decided to not use them and I then proceeded to follow the directions and use them for myself. I had the same issue we had installing them on her, but I was able to be more careful and use them for the evening. Pros: They look real, and they are high quality. Cons: They are loose, and do not stay on your teeth well. But other fangs available expect you to use denture glues and these seem to be a better fit then what I expect you would get with those. Do not expect to use them on younger children despite other reviews saying they did and they worked great on their children.
