Oooh, glad David is a fluoride trays expert!

I stopped using them once my mucosa got too ravaged by radiation. It still stings a bit when I use them, so I try every so often, and if it hurts, I put it away and try again in a week or two. So far stil stings. Should I suck it up and do it, or should I wait until it don't hurt no mo'?
