DS had braces fitted on his upper and lower teeth about 4 weeks ago. Within hours of having the braces fitted 6 brackets had come unstuck. He hadn't eaten or stuck anything in his mouth. Ever since then He's we seem to be going back to the dentist on a weekly or even bi-weekly basis because the same bracket keeps coming unstuck. He's eating carefully, he isn't orally fixated by pencils, finger nails etc... He's not eating toffees or crunchy bread and doesn't chew gum.
It's happened three times this week alone! It's got to the stage now that I daren't take him back yet AGAIN! The dentist gives us a hard time each time it breaks, telling us the adhesives are brilliant and NEVER break and that the NHS won't pay for repairs to braces! Pulling my hair out! Help!
