... Gum infection.. Sucks :/ anyone know anything about gum infections? They popped the damn thing now it kills, i'm doing the salt and warm water thing but i don't think it'll help. Anyone know some remedies?

Salt/water will work somewhat.
Anything with a high alcohol content will work as well. ie - mouthwash

Basically just keeping the infection clean is all you can do, and using alcohol is one way to do it.

So? YOu get the blue thing, and do it... Unless you rather have your gums swelling over the braces.

This isn't something you should post on OnRPG, you should research it, or call your dentist for an appointment. I mean that seriously, not in a condescending way.

Mouthwash contains alcohol. It is not the kind that gets you drunk (it will probably make you go blind and such if you actually drink too much of it). You do not need to be of age to buy mouthwash.

They make special floss for people with braces. It has a more rigid end to it, as well as a pipe cleaner type of texture on one end. It is designed to be easier to use with braces. Your orthodontist should be able to provide you with a sample, or buy it from the drugstore. But if you can't find it, using regular floss is doable, and overall pretty easy once you get used to it.

Or you can ask the clerk in your nearest medicine store.
