My teeth are relatively straight just upper arch is a V shape instead of a U shape (due to thumb sucking when younger). Few questions:
1) My arch wire seems quite straight, thought there would be loads of bends because i figured thats how they move the teeth????
2) I haven't got brackets on last teeth on either side, is this normal?
3) Popped a bracket off before (last one holding arch wire in place) is this normal? Going tomorrow to get it back on.
4) My ortho said i cant floss when have braces on, but everyones seems to floss on here so how come mine said that? bit worried about that one
5) How do you heat the wax up? Do you just rub it into the brace? dont really undertsand sorry! And what do you do with a salt water rinse? Just swish round mouth?
