Brackets but no brace?

Question

he put on the brackets but didn't put on the brace. he did everything to the bottom teeth. has anyone had this happen to them before? also there is still glue on my front teeth. will it come off with time and brushing? how long will it take. it looks yuckie.

Answer 1

I had a lot of teeth with just brackets for the first week. Because of the fact i previously had teeth pulled and my mouth was still overcrowded. A week later i went back and they put the wire on. But usually they just put a couple of brackets on not the whole bottom row without a wire. Did they not tell you why they did that? And yes the glue will come off eventually after brushing

Answer 2

I had my top brackets put in with out the wire. I had to get a tooth pulled and got spacers, i had them with out the wire for almost a month. just yesterday i got my wires in and my bottom braces on as well. i actually thought of it in a positive way because i had time to get used to my braces with out any pain. goo luck!
