Can someone help me objectively make sense of this? My son got braces, has good hygiene, and has not been eating anything banned since the one instance of diced carrots. I have no real explanation for why this keeps happening and the office is saying it’s probably things that I believe he isn’t doing. Here’s the timeline…
• February 18: Braces placed.
• February 19: 2 brackets popped off. 2 more popped off during chain replacement (Total: 4). Staff noted it was probably due to high chain tension.
• Late February: 1 bracket popped off (diced raw carrots).
• Early March: 1 bracket popped off (cereal in milk).
• April 22: Started rubber bands.
• April 28: Bracket popped off on the specific tooth using a rubber band - they told me it wasn’t likely the rubber band but possibly him picking at it (which he doesn’t do)
At this point I don’t think they believe us and I’m at a loss
