The hard and soft palates form the roof of the mouth. On the anterior end of the mouth, the hard palate is formed by the inferior surface of the maxillae and palatine bones. These bones are covered with a thin layer of connective tissues and mucous membranes, which form small wrinkles.
The wax is opaque and unscented/unflavored. Remember to remove the wax before you brush your teeth. Non-toxic if swallowed. When you first get braces, or if you have a lot of hardware in your mouth, dental wax can be a Godsend.

Paraffin wax not only forms a base for medical ointments, it can be used âas isâ for skin and joint treatments. Melted to a comfortable temperature, your foot or hand (or other parts of your body) are immersed in the warm wax and gently pulled out. You may be asked to dip your hand or foot in a few times.
