where do you put the wax thing on braces?!
Question: Where do you put the wax thing on braces?
my dentist told me something but i wasnt paying attention when he said it, but he said something like if your braces cut you, put on the wax thing. are you supposed to put it on your braces or are you supposed to put it on the spot where it cut you?
Answers:
Put it on your braces across from the spot where it cut you.
I hope I was as clear as possible. Oh, and I'm an ex-braces wearer.
You are supposed to put the wax on the wire or bracket that is cutting you. If this keeps happening ask your ortho to cut the wire.
Hoped this helped.
The wax goes on the braces on a spot that is hurting you when it rubs against your mouth.
On the braces, across from wherever it cut you. :)
I have braces
