Just got my braces on today?

Question

ok I just got my bottom brackets on today (im getting my tops on august 3rd) and I have a couple questions. okay my teeth r pretty small so the ortho told me that its harder to bond the brackets to my teeth. he had to take one bracket off as he was wiring because it was kinda loose and I noticed when I got home 2 more were loose.. I can slide one on the wire lol. Im going in 2morrow so they can put that bracket on that he pulled off today and I was wondering what they'll do for the 2 loose brackets?? will they re-glue those on?? will it take a long time?? cuz I dont feel like being in there forever lol I was in there for a long time 2day. thnx for any help!! also my teeth dont hurt yet is this because of the loose brackets?? does this mean it wont hurt until I get the brackets fixed?? or will it never hurt?? thnx for any help lol im new 2 this!!! =))

Answer 1

ok its so wierd i got my bottom braces on today and i am getting my top on august 3 but the bottom ones hurt like crazy though and i do have small teeth too!Wierd...

Answer 2

They will glue it right back on!

Its really quick!

Yeah, it will probably be a little pressure for a couple days, but its not bad bad pain...you can still go out and what not...

Answer 3

hey

ok i have braces and my bottom teeth r preety small 2.

tomorrow they will most likely re-glue them on. it shouldnt take half as long bc its only a few brackets.

generally ur teeth wont hirt until that night or the day after and yes, loose brackets will lessen pain bc there is less tension on ur teeth.

dont worry, i have had my bottom braces for 15 mo. (top for 12) and ull become accustomed to everything braces!

Answer 4

They'll glue it on.

It won't take that long tomorrow - they'll only have to do 2, whereas today they did 16.  Actually 17, if they did one twice.

If you're like me, it'll hurt when you wake up in the morning for about the next 3 days, and ditto every time they tighten them.
