1. I think I may have Vagina Dentata, but I'm unsure who I should see – a dentist or a gynaecologist?

Although technically the root of the problem lies in dentistry, a gynaecologist should always be the recommendation of choice when understanding the reproductive body parts. While some dental practitioners claim to have solutions for Vagina Dentata, and are happy to review the situation, it is recommended that sufferers of the condition contact a certified gynaecologist.

2. How does Vagina Dentata affect my chances of having children?

While Vagina Dentata has more obvious consequences for sexual intercourse, normal conception and reproduction is entirely possible. A caesarean section is the recommended birth method.

3. How can I protect my partner during sexual intercourse?

There are several proven precautionary tools that can be used to protect your partner during sexual activity. The recommended protection is a custom made dental dam, which effectively covers the protruding teeth – in the same way that a gum shield would protect the teeth in a game of rugby. Other suggestions include Dentex fibre-tipped condoms, although they are not 100% protective.

4. Can Vagina Dentata be treated?

Yes it can. Depending on the acuteness of the condition, the best course of action is to have the teeth removed through surgery.

5. Is there a support group that I can join?

Yes there is, visit our 'SUPPORT' page for more information.
