Thank you for review. I had traditional braces for 8 years and I cannot convey much it would have meant to me to brush my bare teeth or eat some, say, corn on the cob, if only for a brief (albeit painful) moment.

All the same, good luck with your braces. I cannot recommend a "gum stimulator" enough!! http://smile.amazon.com/Gum-Butler-G-U-M-Stimulator-Pack/dp/...
