Brace Bracket Popped?!


Question: Brace Bracket Popped!?
I am so annoyed!. I had my braces fitted 4 and a half hours ago and all Ive eaten is Soup!. Ive done nothing to disturb it or anything!. Then, I hear a 'ping' and I see that the bracket has come away from the tooth!. Its still attatched to the wire though!. Im just sooo annoyed Ive got to go back soon again!.


Ring the orthodontist I guess!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I had that happen a couple of times when I had braces!.

It happens, it just means the glue probably didn't stick!.

Yes, ring the orthodontist!. Its not good to just leave it!. Make an appointment ASAP!.

Hope this helps!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Definitely! Call asap! I had that happen to me MANY times when I got braces the first time around!. Of course that's when my parents were paying for a Dentist to do my braces!. I had sooooo many problems with my braces until I went to an actual orthodontist!. They'll probably have to polish the tooth to get off the old cement then put it back on!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I feel your pain! I've had braces for a little while now, and I know that is sooo annnoying! My brace came off yesterday, (i was chewing a pencil) So I dont recomend biting or chewing anything hard! And do call your orthodontist, beacause the longer your brace is loose, the more disorrented the teeth will become!. Hang in there !

Yep!.!. better call your Ortho!. More than likely they did not get enough glue on it or it did not set up right!. My ortho told me that if a bracket pops off it's not a big deal, but to call and they'll get me in to get it fixed!.
Good luck!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
