A dental appliance seating tool is configured for a person to bite and provides sufficient resistive force to aid in seating of a removable dental appliance. The seating tool includes top and bottom surfaces configured to respectively engage with top and bottom teeth of an individual. The seating tool also includes a front surface coupling the top surface to the bottom surface and a rear surface opposite the front surface. An interior wall defines a cavity within the volume defined by the top, bottom, front surface, and rear surfaces. The cavity has a front opening in the front surface and a rear opening in the rear surface. The cavity allows a shaft to pass through the front and rear openings, thus enabling the dental appliance seating tool to slide along the shaft.
