Wow ! You are in a unique situation!.
Unfortunately, because of the heat the metal (and probably the acrylic also) has undergone some distortion!.
You will have to go to your Orthodontist to get the metal wires readjusted!.
It is possible that you may have to get a new one made!.
You CANNOT use the old one (if it cannot be fixed) because the excess pressure may cause damage to the teeth!. If adjusting the wire works, then it should be fine to use it afterwards!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
