Dealing with EmergenciesMost orthodontic issues don’t require immediate attention, and minor breakages can usually be addressed at your next scheduled appointment. However, if you’re experiencing any discomfort, please don’t hesitate to call us—we’re here to help and will arrange a time to see you as soon as possible. |

Broken Brace or Wire:If a wire feels too long or is poking your cheek or gums (which can happen as your teeth shift), try using the wax we provided to protect the area. If it’s causing significant discomfort, give us a call, and we’ll help you out. | Loose Bracket, Module, or Wire:This can typically wait until your next visit, but if it’s bothering you, please reach out to us so we can make you more comfortable. |
Lost Retainers:If you’ve lost your retainer, we’ll need to take a new impression or scan to replace it. Please contact us as soon as possible to schedule an appointment. | After-Hours Emergencies:For urgent issues outside of office hours, please refer to your fridge magnet or braces information book for guidance. We’re always here to support you, even when the office is closed! |
