0 LIKES UnLike

My Flexible metal wire broke and it stuck right into my gum ripping it like paper. We phoned for an emergency orthodontist but we couldn't get hold the flexible wire was sticking in my gum so my older sister cut it off. Will the orthodontist be annoyed the actual brace is not broken its just the flexible wire which my sister cut of .

Thanks guys for answering.

  1. No no if the wire broke then he'd have to replace it anyways.  No worries.


  2. If he gets mad at you punch him it's his job !

  3. Not at all, its his\her job and if they do get mad i would be very surprised. They will fix it and move on, not a prob x

  4. Nope dont worry about it the exact same thing has happend to me just explain the whole situation to him/her

    they will just fix your brace and give you a neww wire but try an get an appointment as soon as possible!

  5. No of course he wont get mad, you were suffering because of the brace and anyone would have done the same thing.

    Dont worry.

  6. No but you might lose some time of your treatment. If a wire breaks and cuts into your gum or inside your cheek you can put dental wax on it (ask for some at your next app) or in worst case put a wad of sugar-free gum on it temporarily and then go to the dentist.

  7. why would he/she get mad? they get paid to do this, its there job. But anyway just make an appiontment as soon as possible, they only going to give you a new wire
