How to deal with the mouth sticking with archwire in the mouth? What if the bracket falls off? In order to fight against the epidemic, most stomatological hospitals and dental clinics in China have delayed the opening hours of outpatient clinics, so braces that need to meet with dentists regularly are suddenly in a state of stocking, especially for patients undergoing bracket orthodontics, there are always problems such as bracket falling off and arch wire sticking. What should we do in this special period?

What should I do if the bracket is ground and the arch wire is stabbed?

1. Orthodontic wax, an artifact to solve wire sticking;

If you feel brackets, steel wires on braces, grinding mouth or pricking mouth, you can use orthodontic protection wax. Sticking your mouth wherever you stick it can prevent the occurrence of oral ulcers.

2. Adjust the orientation of the steel wire at the end of the bracket.

Some have just put on braces, and the steel wire in the small circle of molars is particularly pricked, which seriously pricks the flesh on their cheeks. In this case, you can try to bend the end of the ligature wire to the side of the tooth surface.

If there is wire grinding or wire binding during orthodontic treatment, it must be treated in time and pay attention to diet and oral hygiene at ordinary times. Orthodontic treatment takes a long time, and occasional accidents will not affect the treatment effect.

What should I do if the bracket or buccal tube is loose?

The buccal tube is usually fixed on the last big tooth, which was brushed off by brushing teeth. Once these small parts fall off, they must be kept in time so that they can be fixed again in the hospital. If the bracket falls off, carefully remove the bracket from the arch wire, and then slowly untie the ligature wire to prevent the remaining ligature wire from sticking to the mouth. Then contact your doctor and go to the hospital as soon as possible. If you can't see a doctor in a short time, you must protect the brackets, pay attention to diet and brush your teeth.

Does the stent fall off have any effect?

Some people worry that the stent will be eaten when it falls. It's possible. Don't worry, the swallowed stent will eventually be excreted with the digestive system. Of course, most people don't swallow stents. There are ligatures and archwires. The bracket falling off will lead to the loosening of arch wire, which will affect the current correction effect. It is necessary to fix the bracket in place in time.
