What is Orthodontic Wax Made Of?

Orthodontic relief wax is normally made of a mixture of synthetic compounds, including paraffin and microcrystalline waxes. Orthodontic relief wax is solid at room temperature but becomes soft as it heats up from being manipulated. It is malleable enough to be applied in different configurations in the mouth and on dental appliances. It is also specially formulated to adhere to appliances and create a reliable barrier between them and the soft tissues of the mouth.

What it is and How to use it?

​
​Orthodontic relief wax is a soft, pliable material that is used to relieve discomfort caused by braces and other dental appliances. It is applied to smooth out areas where sharp edges or protruding wires irritate or injure the soft tissues of the mouth. It’s referred to by many names: dental wax, relief wax, orthodontic wax, and orthodontic relief wax. For the purposes of this article, we’ll use the terms orthodontic wax or orthodontic relief wax. Calling this product “dental wax” can often create confusion with waxes that are used to craft dental appliances.
