My expander has fallen down...and broken!!!

#1 Post by cf13 »

Hi guys!

I'm so disappointed!

Yes it's seems amazing but my fixed bondable expander fell down the other day, and because of that, it lose its form, so it's broken.

I did notice in the last turns of the screw that I didn't feel almost any pressure and suddenly it fell down, giving me a good shock.

So now, I have to wait a entire month so my the teeth don't move to take new molds, take them and wait again cause my ortho gets to my dentist office just 2 days a month.

All in sum 2 months delay!!! :cry: :cry:

By the way, I don't want to scare anybody, but in one side it was still fixed, and to take off it was really painful. :( :cry:
