Orthodontic wax is a life-saving tip for those who constantly fall.

For those who say that I am sticking wax, it goes away with my tongue or falls off with saliva after 5 minutes: Before sticking, dry that bracket and the inside of the cheek THOROUGHLY with a Q-tip or a dry napkin! It doesn't stick when wet, but when it's dry it sticks like a rock.

A very good tip! Also, if you roll the wax between your fingers for 5-10 seconds and soften it slightly with body temperature, it hugs the back of the bracket and does not come off for hours.

By the way, do not forget to remove the candle while eating, even if swallowed, it is harmless because it is medical paraffin, but do not let it stick to the food :)
