Lingual arch bracket broke??
Hey guys!
I've had braces for a month now. Today i was eating and bit into something hard and the bracket attached to my lingual arch molar band broke! Does this mean they will have to take off the lingual arch and put a new one in?? Or can they easily re attach the bracket?
