Question:

do orthodontists replace brackets for free?

I already had one replaced a few weeks ago. Now the bottom two front teeth bracketts are basically off. (the wire is holding them in.) i have no clue what to do.

Answer:

My ortho doesn't charge me for fixing any brackets. I guess every ortho is different. Why don't you call yours up and ask ?
they will just glue them back onthey dont replace them, they just scrape the glue off the teeth that they are going back on and the reput them on
I guess they could all be different, but you should have received the answer to this question when you got your braces. They should have given you alot of QA paperwork. My daughters ortho will replace the first 3 for free, after that he's charging.
about 4 or 5 of my brackets have come off in the almost 3 years that i have had braces (getting them off soon yay!). my ortho didn't have a problem with replacing them he did it for free. i don't think yours would charge, when you get braces, you pay for everything, regardess is wires break or brackets become loose. so if it comes out, he'll just put another one! hope this helps!
