Common Orthodontic Emergencies

Just like other dental emergencies, an orthodontic emergency usually happens without warning. Some of the most common orthodontic emergencies include:

• Broken or damaged wires or brackets
• Loose brackets
• Missing rubber bands
• Mouth sores/rubbing irritations
• Accidents

When to call for an appointment

While there are some at-home solutions for dealing with some orthodontic emergencies, you should always call when you have one. The team at A Dental Care will take the time to learn about your situation and determine if you need immediate treatment or if you can wait until a regular appointment. Emergency treatment is critical if your emergency involves a swallowed appliance or extreme pain and bleeding.
