We are moving into the first cold season.. people coming off vacations, and traveling in air planes to college, etc. This spreads alot of viruses around.

not only braces mrsd...but she has the top pallette spreader too! and will probably be getting the lower one.

and yeppers...there have been times that the wires poke. she uses the bee's wax to cover and pokey parts. plus having sooo many more surfaces for germs and bacteria.

she rinses with listerine.
