Question:

Broken bracket on fixed brace?

I brushed my teeth and i saw that a bracket is sticking outwards instead of upwards. Did this ever happen to you with braces??I have made an appoitment but its not until Monday any suggestions.

Answer:

Yes I have had it happen. I just phoned up and got an appointment with my orthodontist, but after that I just had to wait
yer i've got braces it happens to me all the time enjoy it before they stick it back on again lol
Very common for brackets to pop off. I've seen it a million times. Must be on a tooth that does not affect the progress so Monday will be fine. You can use a tiny dab of denture adhesive to secure the bracket if it is annoying you.
Oops this is a toughie never wore braces. Are you uncomfortable - is it cutting into your lip - if so try and put a small wad of cotton wool on it - sounds strange but it's the best I can come up with.
