Tusk Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting: 

  • If you have a loose fit: place the tusk back in the boiling water, reform the root with your fingers and follow the fitting instructions again. You may need a few additional beads of tusk root material (included in the small jar) for a tight lock. 
  • You feel a rough/sharp spot on your gums:
    • Rough Spot: Usually this is caused by the resin portion of the tusks touching your gums. Re-heat your root until the problem area turns clear and add some additional root material beads to cover any exposed resin sections.
    • Sharp edge: Usually this is caused by hardened root material. To soften place under hot water until the area turns clear and use your thumb nail to press away the sharp edge.
