There is a product called "Lip Saver" (I believe) that is sometimes found
at music shops. It is a rubbery waxy sheet with a removable paper backing,
and you cut and form it to your teeth. About $4 for a yard of it, which
will last some years - at least mine does. However, if you have access to
a chemical or biological laboratory, you may be able to bum a piece of
"Parafilm", which seems to be exactly the same thing, and will save you the
$4. You use it folded triple or so, and need to experiment a bit. The
only thing the Parafilm is lacking is the instructions.
