Broken Braces
Should a brace or archwire break, it’s best to contact us immediately. While you are waiting to get in contact with us, here are some things you should do:
1. Apply protective wax to any exposed areas that are rubbing and causing irritation to help manage the discomfort.
2. Do not wear your removable brace if it is broken and causing discomfort or at risk of being dislodged.
3. During your emergency appointment, the orthodontist’s priority is to make your brace comfortable for you – the broken components may not be repaired until a later visit.
