i use my library card,about half as thick as a credit card and GENTLY pry the mouth open taking care not to put pressure on the teeth.there appears to be no drainage from the photo,just thought checking the mouth might head off a possible problem.









if your not comfortable doing this you may want to find someone more experienced to show you the first time.
