You can swallow it...it wont hurt you...its gonna come back out anyway...the real problem is getting to the orthodontist in time to fix the problem before it gets worse...you can let them know though that you swwallowed it

The price of fixing it is included with what was agreed upon.. I paid almost 7 grand OUT OF MY POCKET for my son's braces and he had one break before, we just took him in and they fixed it, no extra charge.. These things happen...Those wires break a lot..Part of the reason for not eating the stuff they tell you not to eat..
As far as swallowing it.. It shouldn't hurt you but I would ask the orthodontist about it..

flow away IT on my own! He is familiar with what he's doing, unlike you! in spite of in case you break some thing and get in faster, it is unlike they could have the means to close the hollow that day! It takes time to head the teeth. in case you progression them too without postpone, the roots resorb (decrease) and you may particularly probably lose the teeth later in existence because of the fact of it. basically wait and notice. I promise while this is throughout, you would be happy you caught it out. be happy that your orthodontist cares sufficient to make each and every thing basically precise. this is such a very small volume of time on your complete existence which will final the the remainder of your existence.

I don't know about DANGEROUS, but it certainly can't be helping whatever problem the braces are there to correct. I think telling you to see the dentist would be to state the obvious, here.

go to your orthodontist and he'll fix it for you...
honestly, if you dont get the wire fixed, you might have to have them on longer, because it wont keep your teeth in place.

Go to your Orthodontist and see what the man (or woman) says:)

definately go to the orthadontist to fix it asap because this might mes up the straightening process and you dont want that because you might have them for longer : (

YES!! ASAP! So they can fix it. It can mess up the alignment of your teeth as well as cause mouth sores.
