How To Use A Dental Dam Or Plastic Wrap

Next » « Previous

To block transmission, the person who will perform oral sex holds the dam or plastic wrap against the vagina or anus of the receiving partner. The dam/plastic wrap should cover the entire vaginal opening and clitoris or the entire anal opening. This is usually accomplished by holding the dam or wrap at both edges. 

  • Only use one side of the dam/plastic wrap.
  • Do not turn it over during use. 
  • Do not use the same dam/plastic wrap on another body part.
  • Do not use it a second time.

It is optional whether to use a water based lubricant on the vagina or anus before using the dam/plastic wrap. Oil based lubricants can tear the dam or wrap.

NOTE: A device known as a "Dammit" acts like a garter belt to hold a dental dam in place. It consists of a few leather straps with adjustable snaps. A dammit frees hands. It also eliminates the risk of using the wrong side of the dam.
