When will I get my only top ceramic braces? I broke two brackets in different months
I currently only have top braces since august of 2016, and I will only have them a year. I broke two brackets in different months, one was october by eating a chicken wing lol, and the other was last month from eating a kit kat (not cold) two days before my retie which was fine. Once I the top off, I will be looking for a different ortho to get the bottoms bc I didn't have insurance at that time and I paid the top out of pocket, stupid me. Will I get them off in a few months? My bottoms aren't bad just the two front bottoms are crooked not noticeable.

I've had only one incident of my ceramic bracket coming off. And the elastic attached to that was very strong, so my ortho wasn't too surprised. I called in for an emergency appointment, and it fixed the same day.

I've had my top, ceramic bracket for over a year with no problems, but I'm pretty careful about what I bite into. There is no way we can know when your brackets will be coming off. That's between you and your ortho.
