i'm sorry to disappoint you but i guess you need to see your dentist as soon as possible to have the dental wax you need to protect the inside of your cheek. stuffs like dental wax can only be bought by dentists from their suppliers/dental store.
candlesticks...if you have them, you can use the wax part...soften a little piece then place it on the bracket or wire that is causing the bleeding.

Did you ask the pharmacist if they carry it at Walgreens? I know I have seen it there. They carry it at almost any store that has a pharmacy. Just look near the toothpaste section. Or just swing by your orthodontist office & pick some up.

Any local pharmacy sells it. Walk down the toothpaste aisle and it is hanging up with other dental appliances such as floss. GUM brand makes it. It is clear and in a little box hanging up.

I have purchased it inside Walmart. Just go to the area where they sell dental floss and other items for teeth...look for dental wax.

You can always go back to/or call the orthidontist office and ask for some more. But yeah, you can go to places like walgreens and the drug store part of walmart and get some.

you might be able to get it at a pharmacy in the section where all the dental stuff is. if not, you can get orajel which i know for sure that they have. orajel numbs your mouth so you won't be able to feel any pain.
GOOD LUCK :-)
