The Tantus Beginner's Ballgag is a silicone gag with a unique shape. Rather than the traditional 'ball', it's a plug or pacifier shape, which fits farther back in the mouth. The 'ball' part of the plug is 2.5 inches long, and sits back in the mouth, but no so far back that you need to worry about your gag reflex being triggered unless it's super sensitive. The silicone plug is attached to the leather straps by snaps that pass through holes on the side of the plug. The gag fastens with Velcro, rather than the traditional buckle closure, so you can more easily release your partner if needed.
You could also switch the straps out with another pair if you prefer your gags to be less easily escape-able, which is what I am planning on doing, as I found that Velcro caught on my hair and pulled in an annoying way. The gag feels quite comfortable during use, even with my hair getting caught a few times. The ball part of the gag measures 1.6 inches across, and doesn't bother my mouth or jaw, even with extended wearing. I know I've bitten down hard on my gag several times during some scenes, and I can't see a single mark on it. I can spit the gag out if I *really* work hard at it, but it isn't easy to do, so no worries if your submissive is a bit bratty.
With the Beginner ball gag, there will also be drooling issues unless they manage to keep their heads back and somehow swallow around the ball every few minutes. The care and feeding of your Tantus gag is as follows: for the silicone bit, you can boil it for three minutes, however, this won't totally sterilize the leather, so it's something to consider before using this gag with multiple partners if you are worried about any kind of bodily fluid sharing. I adore my gag — It's a great first gag, and definitely worth splurging on.
