Well, I was eating pizza and all of a sudden I notice that in the very end, the wire had snapped out of both brackets that are attached to the 2 lower molars...and it's not there anymore.
There is no where else it could have gone other than down my tummy!
hmmm...pizza with peperoni mushrooms archwire and extra cheese. could become the new special. Luckily our tums are able to ignore such items and pass it through.
I have eaten a piece of wire that connected my second premolar and first molar. It was on of the first wires. They are usually britle. I guess the piece of wire came out somehow
