Another Braces Question
Posted: 08-11-05 12:51pm

Okay, so i've had my braces for 5 months now. Anyone else experience-how do I describe this? Okay, i've got what appears to be "shaved-skin" from the inside of my mouth tangle in my braces. Anyone else ever have that problem? I don't know what to make of it. Or course I don't see my orthodontist for another month, but I guess I could call . . . But that means i'd have to get up from the computer and the phone's all the way across the room . . .

Anyone else have that? The skin, not the laziness.

I had braces when I was younger and yes I always experianced this feeling..Just go to the grocery store and buy some wax for your mouth..Apply it to the braces where you think its rubbing up. When I had braces they didnt have the wax you could buy, they only had the kind you could get from your dentist.. Go to a local drug store and get some.

Good luck.
