piece of braces fell off ~ should I worry?! Posted: 11-26-07 17:16pm
So, I got braces abotu a month ago, and
today I was eating Doritos (chips), when I
noticed a little silverr thing come out of
my mouth. I looked at the back, and it
happened to be a brace COMPLETELY fall
off. But it was normal, becasue the
orhtodontist just put it there so It would
look normal, I guess because there's no
wire attached to it. It's just plainly on
the tooth.
I wondered if this could screw up my
braces, or do you think it doesn't really
matter?
Thanks in advance (:

You'll need to go back to your
orthodontist adn have it replaced.

since you are at the beginning it should
be ok--but you should get in and have it
fixed as soon as possible.

have it fixed by the dentist. this is just
the start of the treatment with no wire
attached, so it shouldnt be a problem. the
glue (i think its the glue?) must have
come off. your dentist should probably chk
braces on all other teeth as well...

hi,
what kind of braces do u have? I have
smartclip (for about 2 yrs so far), but i
would definitely call. My dentist and
probably all others says to break apart
the chips into small pieces, it got really
annoyin for me. But it eventually became
a habit. Do any of you have advice on how
to stop/reduce pain from having bands??
I've got them from my canine to back and
have to wear them for about 4 weeks (at
the very minimum). 4 weeks from now is my
next appointment and i've only had the
bands on for 1 day and they are kill.
Thanks,
preciouschild
