Question:

One of my spacers for braces came out the same day i got them. its been two weeks and tomorrows my next appt..

is it still possible for the braces people to put in the things that come on those teeth after the spacer thing?... sorry im not much for listening to the doc when he talks


Answers:

they can still put the brackets on the rear teeth as long as there is enough room. the purpose of the spacers are to create a gap between the very back tooth and the one next to it. if the orthodontist finds that there isn't enough room to apply the bracket, more than likely they will put another spacer in and wait until they can work with the space.

next time, call your orthodontist right away if you notice something isn't right. wearing braces is a (time) lengthy process. everything that needs to be done during the next visit is based on the progress of the prior visit and what takes place within the two week period.
