Yours is probably not broken, but it sounds like maybe it has slipped around the arch a bit. You should ask your orthodontist to check it and reposition it. A lot of times, they are supposed to bent near the end. This is supposed to keep them from slipping out of the bracket...

I've had my braces for almost 3 months now and they suck! I've already had 2 wires break. w/ me the wire completely snapped in two both times and I had to get it fixed asap. Go see your orthodontist if it's poking you or stabbing you anywhere or causing any pain. I don't think it's broken if it's just bent tho. Sometimes the wire slips out in the very back. It doesn't hurt anything. It just feels weird sometimes when I eat. well hope this helps good luck=)

When I had braces, if I could see the wire sticking out and poking the inside of my cheek then it usually was broken. You will be able to feel and see it when it's broken.

If part of the wire or the whole wire has become seperated from the brackets. It could be harmful to your gums get it checked.

If you can run your finger over it and it's sharp then it's probably broken. Usually your gum will bleed a little or you'll cut the inside of your cheek. It sort of feels like the end of a staple when they come loose or get broken. You'll most likely have to go see your orthodontist so he or she can replace that bracket.

I would define freedom as a state of being where I am able to make choices that are not influenced by my passions, options, security, relationships with others, fear etc... I am only as free as I am able to detach from these things. Yes, I do think freedom does exist! Anyone that has been on the brink of despair and came back knows this to be true because they discover that their pain lies in the attachment to whatever is causing the distress. All these things are imperfect and they will leave me still wanting. ……for thou hast made us for thyself and restless is our heart until it comes to rest in thee. ~Saint Augustine
