-The caster may create one mouth per level, per level, and no more than one mouth per day.  Thus, a 7th level caster would be able to steadily manufacture seven mouths over the space of a week. Thereafter, no new mouths could be cast at all, unless some previously made mouth were dispelled at the caster's will — however, the caster must touch the mouth to dispel it.

Thereafter, no new mouths could be cast at all, unless some previously made mouth were dispelled at the caster's will — however, the caster must touch the mouth to dispel it.
 As such, the caster decides which mouth to dispel. If no mouth is within reach to be dispelled, the caster must do without. Once a mouth is discharged by some other being, the caster is free to replace it.

-'''Magic mouth''' conjures a visible, enchanted mouth that magically appears on an object or upon a fixed surface, when a certain trigger causes the mouth to open and speak.  To the witness, the lips, teeth and maw emerges as a part of the object or surface; once it's delivered its message, the mouth disappears.  The object must be inert; it cannot be a living thing.
