    too much glue?

    Okay I really dont know whats wrong, but when I bite down, my right side of my bottom molar hurts and it wont bite down all the way and for some reason it feels like theres something there. When I looked in the miror it turned out to be dried glue! Turns out he didnt scrape it off and it hurts SO MUCH to bite down.. like I cant do anything, I tried to scrape it off myself but its too dry.. is there anything I can do it hurts soooo much.

    Is it too much glue on a bracket, or is it stuff he put on your tooth purposefully to prevent you from biting down all the way? I have that stuff on both my molars to prevent my top teeth from hitting my bottom brackets. If you're concerned about it, definitely call the office right away. If they're already closed, call first thing tomorrow morning. They want this to be a positive experience for you and I'm sure they'll help you out as soon as possible. Good luck!

    Denise has raised an important issue, although you'd hope that your ortho would tell you if you were to have the molar buildup used to prevent you from biting down fully.

    Give your ortho's office a call and ask them about this bonding. Please don't try to remove it until you've discussed this with them.

    Take care!
    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!
