Braces keep falling off

2017-06-11 06:52:37
My braces at the back of my mouth keep falling off. In spite of having soft foods they break off by slight involuntary hard biting / grinding of the teeth. This upsets me and also creates problems for my dentist. This has to be the second time my bracket has come off. Can I ask my doctor to provide a molar band for the same ? What can be the expected cost for the band ?

Please check with your orthodontist whether it is the molar tubes which are falling or any other brackets In case of the molar tubes u can request for molar bands with prewelded tubes but they require a little time as space for the bands hav e to be created wuth separators.
