    Is this a problem?

    Hey guys,

    I`ve had my braces on for about an hour now and one of the squares on the brace, not sure what the correct term for them are, but it isnt touching my tooth and its sideways instead of flat on the tooth. Its on the top set of teeth, one to the left of my left front tooth if you get that? The furthest one on the top on the left that you can see a square on.

    Hi

    It looks like that bracket has come off your tooth. Give your ortho a call and you'll get an appointment to have it looked at and probably rebonded.

    That lateral looks to be quite out of alignment, so this may have been caused due to the pressures of the archwire.

    Good luck getting it sorted!
    After 5 years, 11 months and two days of stainless steel brackets ... my teeth now have upper and lower bonded, gold wire, retainers and removable clear retainers!
