Answer 2

my ortho book sed to put wax on it or to take it and bend it bak with a pencil eraser

Answer 3

Your orthodontist should clip the wire for free. It doesn't take long and will relieve your pain...if that's not what you wish to do pick up some wax and stick it on. (I hated wax)

Answer 4

It won't cost any money if you go just to have a nurse trim the wire. I had the same thing happen to me and when I went it didn't cost money.  

Answer 5

ahh!

i had that problem

it ended up making a HUGE sore

it hurt soooo bad

however, the ortho should let you in forfree if you're having a problem such as this

just call them and ask if its ok if they cut it because it is hurting you very badly.

hope it works out!

Answer 6

put some wax on it;

or get some pliers and clip it youself.

Answer 7

It's your orthodontist's fault the wire is too long so he/she should clip the ends for free. Just remember to call ahead so your not just coming in. Also temporary fix: wax.
