BRACES - what does the tooth glue that orthodontists use taste like?
My friend has braces so I asked her [she wants the credit]. She says, "The glue doesn't taste like anything. It just tastes a little like chalk. It's fine to swallow. I've done it before."





Good luck with your braces
Reply:Bitter and gross! It is plain NASTYNESS!!!
Reply:ugh it was the most disgusting crap EVER!!
Reply:Mine tastes like nothing. And I've swallowed some on accident before, like when it fell off my tooth, and I was fine. Think of it this way, they wouldn;t put it in your mouth if it wasn't safe.
Reply:DO NOT SWALLOW IT! i have braces right now and let me tell you, the glue is the worst part of getting them on. it taste like fizzy stuff, and it sorta stings your throat. don't taste it w/ ur tounge because it will give you a rally bad feeling.
Reply:U dont really get a chance to taste it, cuz they glue it on then use there torch :) to heat the plaster-like-stuff. U taste it for like a day. And they wouldnt put anything into ur mouth that would cause sickness... swallowing sum wont kill u :)
Reply:You really wont have a chance to taste it you have so many different things in your mouth you wont even be concentrating on the taste of things! And they put cotton balls in your mouth that will absorb your saliva so you dont have to swallow
Reply:When i got my braces done it really didn't have a taste to it. I mean i guess it might have a slight taste but it is nothing that taste awful. It won't hurt if you swallow some of it but i am sure that it would not be good if you swallowed alot of it either. But the thing about the taste really it drys so fast that you really don't have time to taste it.
Reply:polymer or zinc phosphate. these substances are orally tolerated but are not food. there really is not much flavor to them
Reply:it tastes gross..


and it's not a big deal if you swallow it because it happens.


***they wouldn't put it in your mouth if it was dangerous
