Answers:
rip off a small piece and let it get warm in your hands, then press it on the place that is irritating you!. It may feel a little uncomfortable for a while but just leave it there and you will get used to it!. I used to use it all the time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if your mouth hurts!. then you put the wax over the part of the braces that is cutting up your mouth and then after a few days of having it on your braces you'll feel betterWww@Answer-Health@Com

take a small piece and warm it up between your fingers and press it into the metal on your braces!. it should reduce the irritation if they bother youWww@Answer-Health@Com

Call your orthodontist and ask!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
