Well, you should go to the ortho, but until then,
you can put guaze or a cottonball on the wire
so it won't poke you anymore.
Hope this helped.



Ask the orthodontist, plus they should give you some wax to rub on the wire, this will prevent the cutting into your cheek. The orthodontist will cut the access wire.

Best of luck with your braces.

Had braces for 2 years, now my teeth are great. lol



MY bf got braces and his ortho told him he should go to him and he will cut the wire. I don't think you can cut it yourself cause you have to be very careful. Just go to the ortho and this will be the easiest solution :)



There is nothing you can do because if you try and cut the wire the wire will break and the bolts will break - grandson had same problem few weeks ago and he had to go back to orthodontist to get them fixed.



go back to the orthodontist.. tell him to cut the wire. simple as that.

should of told them the wire is abit long in the back and they could of cut for you before you left instead of going back. shame on you.



just call your ortho. they should be able to get you in right away. it takes like 2 seconds to clip it.
