When patients are forced to undertake orthodontic treatment to align their teeth, they shouldn’t not forget to protect their orthodontic brackets. Brackets are where the orthodontic wires pass through them. Thus, if they deviate, even slightly the teeth’s movement will differ. Fortunately, a problem commonly occurs during orthodontic treatment, especially the lingual orthodontics. This Is the breakage of brackets. Since, the orthodontic brackets are separated from the tooth, the treatment process would be ruined and it would decline the speed of the teeth alignment process.
To take serious protection of their orthodontic brackets, before anything else, patients need to know that what consequences would be followed if even a single bracket is separated from its place:
Since the start of orthodontic treatment, all patients have to observe the necessary care for the health of their teeth. All orthodontists strongly ask their patients to avoid stiff foods, because such foods would break their orthodontic brackets.
However, in some cases it has been seen that despite observation of necessary instructions and care by the patient, the orthodontic bracket would break and it occurs for different reasons.
For example, loosened orthodontic adhesive, chewing nuts, when a spoon hits the orthodontic bracket, etc. are among the common causes which may result in the breakage of the orthodontic bracket. Although it would happen for any patient and is something which is not predictable, so, the patients need to know what to do in such cases:
