How do you put on the wax for braces?
Question:
Answers:
You just pinch off a little piece, roll it into a ball and stick it
onto the bracket or whatever is poking you, then sort of
smooth it down. You take it off at the end of the day or
before you brush. Then the next time you go to the orthodontist they fix whatever it is that's bugging you.
Pull off a little from one end and stick it on the spot that is irratating your mouth!
just get a little bit of wax...u dont need a whole lot. It lasts for a while.a few hours i guess...you'll know once your mouth starts to hurt again. just stick the little bit of wax on, smush it onto the brace and if u want to take it off, just peel it off.hope this helps
stick however much you need onto the surface... for me it was sometimes a lot - i put a long thin layer over my bottom teeth (my two canines stuck out and would leave marks)
it only lasts unil you eat again - especially if you stick it on the back teeth... i usually only put it on at night, because i like to eat snacks all the time :)
put just a little on the area where it rubbing your inside of your mouth and then leave it it will go away it self
Just pull a little piece from the strip of wax and roll it in between your fingers to soften it then place it on what ever is hurting you. To take it off you just have to pull it off of where ever you stuck it. The wax should last a while it won't disappear but it might wear down a little bit. If you have a wire that is really poking you call your orthodontist office to have it sniped. Use the wax until you can get an appointment
