I was a wax fiend but set out several periods of time where I didn't wear wax on purpose and tried to see how long I could go w/o it.
I am on 2 weeks w/o wax because I stay hydrated. Lots and lots of water.
I dont drink soda anymore. After alcohol I have 2 glasses of water for every one glass of alcohol. If I go swimming I take ice water with me.

You get the idea. I drink other stuff but usually follow with water. You wont believe how much it helps.

The very first week after my b-day there was wax everywhere- on every single tooth of my mouth, but as time was passing by, day by day the was went off first from one tooth, then from other two, and by the second week i wore no wax and i haven`t used it any more. I`ve never had any more sores on my cheeks

This weekend I went up north to visit my family for Memorial day and I drank tons of water but it wasn't enough. By Sat afternoon I had wax everywhere. My poor cheeks. As soon as I got back to Phoenix I could remove the wax without drama.
