Wire out of a Brace
Just as a wire may protrude from a brace early on
in treatment, it is possible for a wire to come out of
a brace. The solution to this problem is simply
reinsert the wire in the brace using a pair of
Nelson Hersh DDS, MS
Licensed Specialist
tweezers or a needle nose plier.
Expander is Loose
If an expander becomes loose, we do not want you to activate it
until you are seen. Usually the expander can be pushed back
onto the tooth until you can get back into our office. Sticky foods
are usually the cause of this.
Wire Poking
Early on in treatment as the teeth move, it is possible for the wire
to protrude from the back brace. This problem can be solved by
taking a nail clipper and snipping the wire as close as possible to
the brace. If you cannot clip the wire, placing some wax on it
will help to keep you comfortable.
Initial Soreness
After the initial placement of braces or following an adjustment,
the teeth may be tender for a couple of days. This occasionally
happens and will pass. An over-the-counter pain reliever such as
Advil or Tylenol may be helpful in alleviating this initial soreness.
