You should put wax on it for tonight and call your orthodontist as early as possible tomorrow morning. Some orthodontists are on vacation until after January 1st. That is OK, but you may want to see your general dentist, if he/she can get you in, in the meantime. It will be difficult to keep wax on that area for more than a day at a time. At least your dentist will be able to clip the wire and make you comfortable. They may even be able to thread the wire back through the bracket for you...but call your orthodontist first. I hope this helps.

You'll be fine until tommorrow. If the wire is bothering you, cutting your mouth etc. just use some wax to buffer.
