Orthodontic Emergency Care in Richmond Hill

If you are experiencing discomfort or an urgent issue with your braces, aligners, or other orthodontic appliances, our Richmond Hill orthodontic team is here to help. We understand that problems like a broken bracket, a loose wire, or unexpected pain can be stressful, and prompt attention is essential to keep your treatment on track.

If you are unable to resolve the problem at home with the guidance provided during your treatment, please get in touch with our office immediately. We will arrange an appointment as soon as possible to adjust, repair, or replace the affected appliance, ensuring you remain comfortable and confident throughout your orthodontic journey.

Surprisingly, some problems can be temporarily managed until your scheduled emergency appointment. If a piece is loose, securely store it in a plastic bag for your next visit.

For damages on your braces, apply soft wax to the protruding part. If a wire has shifted, gently guide it back with needle-nosed pliers and secure it in the tube on the back tooth.

After mitigating discomfort, it’s crucial to contact our office promptly for a scheduled repair. Prolonging the presence of damaged appliances may disrupt your treatment plan.
