Getting braces cutting on the inner cheeks can be a “pain in the neck” problem to everyone who is having teeth alignment. Here are some tips to treat the pain or soreness caused by wire’s cut during Covid-19 or Working-from-home.
- Use dental wax or soaked cotton, put on the wire (in case you can’t find those, you may use a no sugar gum as an alternative)

However, if the wire is too long or comes out of place, please consult with your dentist immediately.
