If an orthodontic wire or brace breaks or comes off
If your brace or wire becomes loose or broken, come to the office as soon as possible, as it can only be fixed by your dentist. If sharp edges on the wire or brace are hurting your mouth, buy dental wax from your local pharmacy, and smooth it over the sharp edge. In an orthodontic emergency, you can reach the team at Dental Care Somerset 24 hours a day.
If you have eligible benefits remaining, met your deductible requirements and insurance where a co-pay is not required, your exam, x-rays and cleaning will be at no cost to you. If your insurance requires a co-pay you must pay the required out-of-pocket cost.
