This is the first article in the safer sex series, where I'll cover different ways to protect yourself during oral sex.
A few months ago I wrote a post about being safe while performing analingus. , where I mentioned dental dams, these small sheets of latex which can help transform a somewhat risky experience into a safer one.
Dental damns were originally used by dentist to isolate a tooth during dental procedures. They should definitely be used if you decide to perform analingus on your partner. You can then have all the fun but none of the infections and STDs that can easily be passed trough fluids.
Although they're not as easy to find as condoms, dental dams can be purchased online or at some drugstores or sex shops. But even if you can't quickly find one or have none on hand at the time of having sex, there is no need to panic or make yourself at risk. You can easily make your own, and in a matter of minutes. Dental dams can be made from latex gloves or saran wrap. Another quick – and fun- way to make a dental dam is by taking off the tip of a condom and cutting one of the sides.
Usage:
Dental dams are fairly easy to use. Just hold it over the anus during the stimulation with your tongue. Of course, doing so will not guarantee that you'll be 100% safe, but it will be a great help in reducing your risk or STDs.
A few words of advice:
- Never use a dental dam twice, and never use the other side of a used dental dam ( you'll only be saying hello to all the fluids you've been trying so hard to avoid). Discard them immediately after each intimate act.
- If you're making a dental dam from a condom, it's better to buy a flavored one. Who wants the taste of latex in their mouth?
- You can use lubricants when using dental dams – it's especially a good idea if you make them yourself. It will avoid having the latex stick on the skin. Certain lubricants will break the latex down, though. It's recommended to use a dental-dam safe lubricant.
- Enjoy your time together!
