put dental wax on the bit that it poking into you if you haven't got this put baby bell cheese wax on it!. sounds stupid works just as good if not better!!
and book an appointment in emergency see if you get in quicker!.
but if not wait until tuesday!.
your teeth wont move back in 2 days!.!. and You can't really fix it yourself though!.Just don't be poking it :)
Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well i don't mean to be rude but that is because you do have to get to the orthodontist!. as soon as possible because as far as I know there is nothing you can do and I had mine on for three years!. But if you leave it as is the problems that can occur would be damage to the inside of your mouth obviously and if the wire is sticking out it can go through your cheek!. I guess you could try the wax they give you to keep it from stabbing you or actually put cotton in your mouth to protect it but this I might add is uncomfortable and not something you can walk around with all day!. If you can't get an appointment NOW then you will just have to deal and hope that nothing happens!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No there is nothing to do except wait!. Try putting wax on the broken bit that is cutting you!. Or even try to take the broken bit off, it will be useless to the orthadontist so you should use force to take it off if you wish!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

maybe you can put a ton of wax where its broken, so that it doesn't cut into your gum!. but other than that you need to get to the orthodontist like yesterday!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

my orthodontist taught me a trick if something is rubbing up against your mouth or gums- wet a small strip of paper towel, and fold it just right so that it is wedged between the spot and your mouthWww@Answer-Health@Com

add some of the wax they give you or an eraser so that the metal is not touching your gum while you're on your way to the ortho!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wow!.!.!.you need to go to the orthodontist and get that repaired before it can do any more damage to your gumsWww@Answer-Health@Com
