Directions for Use

---

Make sure hands are washed and clean. Open tamper-proof seal on tube. Twist tube slowly to express just less than 1/4 inch of putty (initially twisting the dial too aggressively can break the internal mechanism). Be patient!  The material will express very slowly. It is not like a traditional lip balm in texture. Pinch off with dampened fingers and form a ball. Press putty into clean socket, hole in tooth, or along gum line of affected tooth--using the tackiness of material to engage regions between teeth to hold in place. For maximum effectiveness, ensure material is along root line. Allow to dissolve and you may choose to expectorate (spit) due to increased salivation. Taste is quite strong. Wash hands thoroughly after use. Note:  After initial removal of internal foil seal and after each use, you may find it best to rotate the turning mechanism back "down" a turn or two. The material is quite sticky and you may find that it sticks to the inside of the cap. If this were to happen, simply use a toothpick to release the putty that is stuck to the inside of the cap and use as directed. It is recommended to store the tube upright after each use if possible.
