I dont' think there's anything I can do about this, but I'm wearing rubberbands to fix my overbite and the inside of my cheek is getting ripped up from rubbing on the rubberband. It's not like I can put wax on the rubberband itself. Anyone have any ideas. I guess I'll try salt water rinses tonight.
I also have to wear elastics for an overjet/overbite. I drink lots of water and tea throughout the day. I find that keeping hydrated really helps. By the way, do you mean elastics when you say rubber bands?
