mouthpiece

I recently had the chance to try a Manta-Bite and mostly liked it. It's a "worth considering" alternative to the Comfo-Bite and SeaCure mouthpieces and definitely addresses your flimsy and small silicone problem.

Here's a link to a full review that I posted elsewhere with more info.

Justin,

You can do that or you can get the same results for considerably less money by buying the Oceanic.

What is the name of the oceanic brand? And if you have a link to where I can find out more about it, please post it.

Thanks,

Justin

I replaced my new scubapro mouthpiece with a comfobite from an aqualung reg. I have problems with my jaw (old hockey injury) and the scubapro made my jaw hurt so much I couldn't open my mouth for two days after a hard day of repetative cold water diving. The comfobite is awesome, I have never had a problem since.

Comfo-bite looks great. I'm sold. Curious though if anyone has tried both comfo-bite and Manta. Both seem to have a big bonus to sell to students and safety conscious: less discomfort plus two key safety features: 1) reduced risk of reg. being dislodged 2) more rescue time since reg. would likely stay in place...at least that is what Manta promotes in their literature...

My Apeks came with the comfobite. Used it once and got rid of the mouthpiece. I hated the bridge that went up across the roof of the mouth. I now use one of those Seacure mouthpieces. I find it to be very comfortable. Are you sure you used the right temp. water to mold it and didn't bite down too hard? I don't think you should sink in up to your gums.

If you don't like the length of the Seacure you can trim them. I like the long wings on either side as I can use the molars to hold the mouthpiece in.

with Goldminer. The comfo-bite feels like a dental appliance to me. I've used the Oceanic in the past and it was nice. Nowadays I just use a standard mouthpiece.
