A soft, mouldable protective wax designed to ease discomfort from orthodontic appliances by forming a thin, soothing barrier over brackets, wires, or metal bands.
Benefits:
- Creates a smooth, protective layer to prevent irritation and rubbing inside the mouth.
- Reduces soreness caused by wires or brackets rubbing against cheeks or tongue.
- Provides instant relief during the adaptation phase or after orthodontic adjustments.
- Easy to shape and apply with fingers.
- Transparent and discreet once applied.
Main Ingredients and Their Benefits:
- Hydrogenated microcrystalline wax: provides pliability and conformability to form a protective cushion.
- Paraffin wax: adds body and structure, ensuring the wax stays in place.
- White mineral oil: helps the wax adhere gently and comfortably to orthodontic hardware.
Precautions:
- Do not swallow the wax.
- Use only on dry surfaces for optimal adhesion.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Replace the wax regularly, discard and reapply as needed.
Side Effects:
- Slight taste or sensation in the mouth.
- Minor irritation if not removed or replaced daily.
- Risk of ingestion if accidentally swallowed (though generally inert).
- Pinch off a small piece of wax.
- Roll it between your fingers for a few seconds to soften.
- Dry the orthodontic surface (wire, bracket or band) before applying.
- Press the softened wax gently onto the area causing discomfort until it adheres.
- Replace the wax every day or when it becomes loose.
