MUNCHIES® WIRED & MUNCHIES® W-SERIES
Discomfort Relief
Munchies® WIRED devices have viscoelastic properties that provide relief from the discomfort felt during orthodontic tooth movement, especially in the first 24 hours after a wire placement & adjustment, separator insertion, elastic band application, palatal expander activation. Patients gain relief when biting initially into a soft device, followed by a firmer device, the phenomenon is called the Bite Wafer Effect1,2
How effective are Munchies® WIRED and what are the advantages?
Biting regularly on the Munchies® WIRED device can provide significant relief from
this pain and discomfort. Research confirms that this relief is as effective as over-the-counter medications, without the risks and side effects3.
In addition, use of anti-inflammatory medication4 such as ibuprofen, naproxen
sodium and aspirin during treatment can severely inhibit the effectiveness of orthodontic tooth movement and should be avoided.
