That's one of my biggest fears, lol. Luckily I've avoided it so far :) (knock on wood!)

I hope you're feeling better!

Vomiting doesn't mix with anything too well as far as I can tell, but it must be a real adventure with braces. I occasionally gag myself accidentally when I am brushing my tongue with a special little doo-dad but have not had to endure actual emesis.
Hope you are feeling better!
Speaking of disgusting experiences, I had some hotdogs last week, and as I conducted my post-prandial oral hygiene with a waterpik was reminded of how similar hot dog bits resememble oral tissue, and imagined that my mouth was falling apart. No, I was not drinking. Just a very active, and somewhat weird imagination.

I 100% agree. Been through it a couple times. Nasty.

I request extra anti-nausea meds for any surgery now. Learned that one the hard way too.

It happened to me once. During the actual vomiting I forgot all about the braces, but I didn't enjoy washing my teeth afterwards. But I have to say that washing my granny's dentures is much, much worse.......
