There are a variety of rubber tipped picks available yet I’m not sure where I found these. Possibly a drug store.
A Water Pick is very handy as well once you get used to not spraying the room. I add a bit of Chlorhexidine Gluconate rinse (prescription available from doc or dentist) to the water tank to keep it fresh/clean.
Our daily oral work is time consuming. We have no choice in the matter. It’s part of the new normal because ignoring all that needs to be done has drastic results. Perhaps some day our surgeons will consider quality of work in the equation when making their repairs. Our part can be handled during follow-ups by factually stating without complaining that we have issues and what those issues are rather than just saying it’s all fine, no complaints. This while probably not directly helpful to us just may help the next patient down the road by improving procedures. One can only imagine what the first patient’s quality of life was like.
