Why can’t the orthodontist attach the braces strongly enough that the braces don’t come off during eating?
A balance must be obtained between keeping the bracket on and getting the bracket off. The orthodontist needs to remove your braces at the end of the orthodontic treatment. If the orthodontist attaches your braces too firmly, removal of the braces could be difficult and possibly cause damage to the teeth upon removal. About 5% of brackets loosen or are lost during treatment.
