Anyone with an underbite had success with either?

I'm on my second round of trying Wedges and, to be honest, they don't do anything for me. IMO, you'd be better off getting a conventional piece that fits and practice with it exclusively.

How's your underbite? Have you tried rotating it 90 degrees?

I'm guessing Kent is the gentlemans name?

I'm in the UK, but have neither Wedges nor Asymmetrics anymore - tried them both (Wedges a couple of times) and rejected them... just didn't work for me.

But I don't have an underbite (lower jaw in front of upper, to be sure we're talking about the same thing).

In general, I can see how they might work for some people but they really didn't for me.

The Wedge can be rotated but it is not designed for that.

I can play Wedge just fine, and have at least a couple of the plastic tops, which I find to perform as advertised. I'm in the States.

Assymetric did not work for me, but are designed for an under bite. I have an overbite.
