My child has broken their brace or loose wires from their appliance?
If a broken appliance can be removed easily, take it out. If it cannot, cover the sharp or protuding wires with dental wax, cotton balls, gauze, or chewing gum. If a wire is stuck in the gums, cheek, or tongue, DO NOT remove it. Take the child to a dentist immediately. Loose or broken appliances which do not bother the child don’t usually require emergency attention.
