Braces!!!!!!!!!?
Hey i have the same problem, my ortho is only open on mondays so whenever i broke a bracket it would be really annoying, i broke 3 brackets within the first 20 mins of having braces.





Just wax up and try to avoid putting anymore pressure on the broken bracket as not to damage the ones that it is connected to.
Reply:Just put a good amount of dental wax on the bracket where it's rubbing. It's fine to sleep with the wax in your mouth, as well.
Reply:i dont have braces but try the link... look fro the sub-title Loose Wire or Band
Reply:Use the wax at night, it is fine. The little white bump is just a reaction to the metal rubbing on the soft skin. It will go away eventually. Your mouth will get tougher and won't react with those bumps as time goes on-that sounds like bad thing but it's not. In a week or so you will feel alot better and in a month you won't even notice that the braces are there. Honestly if you have alot of work to do on your teeth it will get worse before it gets better, but the end result is fantastic and completely worth it.
Reply:I got my braces on Wednesday and somewhat of the same thing happened to me just but a dime size amount of wax on and it should be fine in tell Monday and yes I'm pretty sure it is fine to leave the wax on at night.
