Problems

What to do if ...

If a wire(s) is too long and poking your cheek or gum:

If your wire is poking on one side only, try to slide the wire back around toward the other side.
If your wire has popped out of the tube, try to place the wire back into the tube with tweezers.
Put orthodontic wax on the end of the wire that is bothering you.
Using a pair of regular nail clippers, cut the wire as close to the bracket as you possibly can and use orthodontic wax to cover what was missed.
Try using a spoon or the eraser end of a pencil to gently push the poking wire away from the tissue.
Call the office at (204) 947-1825 to make an appointment to have the wire snipped.
Call your dentist if these suggestions don't give you relief.
