Dicdef?[edit]

I think this is slightly more than a dicdef; it has some additional info (however short) and seems like a noteworthy subject. I would just keep this here. Grand master ka 23:40, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How to clean the teeth?[edit]

Hello,

is it possible, to clean the teeth while the jaw is closed, and how is it possible? If not, it is very unhealthy!

Yours sincerely

What about drowning in ones own vomit?[edit]

Something I've pondered ever since hearing about jaw wiring, is the potential for drowning from uncontrollable vomiting. Severe nausea does happen from whatever cause. So, how is that handled? Having your jaw immobilized enough to prevent eating shouldn't have the potential to also drown you as one side-effect. Linstrum (talk) 05:35, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
