This process is repeated a large number of times (typically 1,000 or 10,000 times), and for each of these bootstrap samples we compute its mean (each of these are called bootstrap estimates). We now have a histogram of bootstrap means.
Most people are able to safely chew and swallow foods of many different textures. As we chew, food is broken down into small pieces. Saliva moistens and binds food pieces together in preparation for swallowing.A dry or sore mouth can cause problems with chewing and swallowing.
Chewing larger pieces may make it hard to swallow or cause choking. If you can remove your expander, you may be tempted to take it out when eating. This is a definite no-no as the expander is actually activated by chewing forces and eating with it on actually increases its effectiveness.
