Well I've had my braces for a little over 6 months and have had pretty much no trouble. However, tonight I went out to dinner with friends, BEFORE we had even ordered our food I felt something loosen on my braces and put my finger on it and a ligature felt very loose and then..it just came out! It had broken, one on my bottom front tooth. I don't have an ortho appointment for just under 4 weeks now and live in the country where he only comes down every 6 weeks. Will I be ok til then? will it delay my treatment? Help!

Thanks
