my query is -  i had ceramic braces for my teeth since last 6 months. recently a week before i had minor accident but my mouth rocked on a glass of car. i had 3 stitches on my upper lips, simultaneously inner side of lips got teared; all those injuries r getting recovered phenomenally. but 2 days before my one of bracket of ceramic brace was broke, i think its due to the impact during accident. soon after that i found that particular teeth is became sensitive for hot n cold, also i found its slightly loose. what should i do? what r reasons? does tht teeth will fall out ?
Hello, The trauma has resulted in an injury to the orthodontic braces and to your teeth. You have to get an x-ray of the tooth to identify if there is any fracture of the root of the tooth. A splinting of the tooth might be required depending on the mobility of the tooth. Sensitivity could be due to the exposure of the dentin of the tooth due to trauma. Consult your dentist immediately for care. Regards
