Presas Dentales

A dental dam is your mouth's favorite bodyguard! It's a thin, flexible sheet (usually latex or non-latex) that acts as a physical barrier during oral-to-genital (cunnilingus) or oral-to-anal (anilingus) contact. By preventing direct skin-to-skin contact, the dam effectively reduces the risk of transmitting STIs. Barrier up for worry-free fun!

When used correctly and consistently, dams are a highly effective method for reducing your risk during oral play. While no barrier is 100% perfect, the dam provides a crucial physical layer against fluids and skin-to-skin contact. For maximum protection, always use a new dam every time, and make sure it's smooth and tear-free before you start the action. Stay safe!

Unroll or unfold the dam and place it smoothly over the vulva or anus, ensuring the area is fully covered. You or your partner should use hands to gently hold the edges taut to prevent any unwanted shifting or slippage during your intimate moments. Keep it flat, keep it safe, keep it going!

The secret is lube and gentle handling. Always use plenty of water-based lubricant on the side of the dam touching the genitals; this drastically reduces friction and stops it from tearing. To prevent slipping, gently hold the edges taut during use to maintain its position. A new dam and fresh lube every time are your best defense against movement and tearing.

Think of a dam as a one-and-done protective layer. If you flip or reuse the dam, you risk bringing the side that has already been in contact with one partner's body fluids directly into contact with the mouth, completely defeating the purpose! To maintain continuous, reliable protection, you must discard the used dam immediately after the sex act.
