Nougat + archwire?
Posted: Sat Oct 27, 2007 1:22 pm
Ever since I got my braces, I've been eating pretty much everything that I was eating pre-braces, even all the so-called forbidden food.
It's been (exactly) 11 months. So far, so good..
Until tonight. Haha.
My dad went to Macau a few days ago and came back with these amazing Cherykoff nougat, and I was just chewing on them one after another. Halfway through my 3rd one in a row, I noticed a wire on the nougat; at first I thought, eww the guy who worked in the factory must've been sleeping on the job, but then on 2nd thought, it looked like a wire tie more than anything. It was in the shape of a square with the ends of the wire twisted together. Then I checked the mirror, and that confirmed it.
I'd call my ortho to tell him to replace it, but..
1) tomorrow's Sunday, and
2) would it be that bad of an idea to wait til my next appointment, which would be the 12th of Nov? Surely ONE wire tie-less bracket shouldn't affect my progress too much, would it? I mean the brackets next to it are secured, so the archwire couldn't shift out of place.. I really don't want to go to the office and be asked to wait a whole hour just to have one wire put on my bracket.
What to do?
