DS has braces and the orthodontist today threatened to remove them if they break again. They’ve broken twice.
He’s conscientious and follows the rules, keeps them very clean (confirmed in check ups) and eats the food they say.
Two days ago the back bracket popped off when he was eating rice. Soft food, our theory is it was maybe a teeth clash moment. His teeth are unusually crowded and I’d guess have more pressure, there’s also some overlapping of teeth.
When he just had them, about six months ago, two brackets popped off. One they said was just the pressure at the front but the other at the back (same place) was his fault. I was with him this time also, he was eating a smooth peanut butter soft bread sandwich.
They won’t listen than he hasn’t been eating crunchy food or gnawing on bone.
Has anyone else had this issues with an nhs orthodontist?
