Splint cleaning questions

[Guest guest]

I was in my local mega mart the other day trying to find more wax and

found a neat-o little toy. I am not sure what it is called, but it is

just like the little mirror that dentists use to look in your mouth,

but this one has a light! So off to home to scrub my teeth and look

with my new little lighted mirror. While wondering how my nosy self

has survived for three weeks post surgery without this thing, I

noticed white icky buildup under my splint!! Now I am a total freak,

wondering how to clean under the splint when my husband wonders if I

am even supposed to. For those who have had non-removable splints, is

the white ick normal? Is there a better way for me to clean....? I

brush and swish (sp?) with salt water and mouth wash. Is there

something else I should be doing? I still have over three weeks with

this thing in there!

ANY help would be appreciated!!
