Oops! My Invisalign bracket fell off, is it serious?

Don't worry, it's not an emergency. If your Invisalign attachment has fallen off, it can be reattached within the next few days or sometimes even weeks. Occasionally, it may not be reattached. So, this is a common and harmless situation.

However, here are a few questions to ask yourself:

- Did you wear your aligners while eating?

- If you didn't wear them, did you eat any hard foods?

The most important thing is to continue wearing your aligners exactly as instructed. Regular wear allows your teeth to continue moving as planned, even without the white composite attachment.

However, it is recommended that you contact your dental clinic in Mascouche to adjust the time of your next appointment. This will allow us to schedule enough time to reattach the new bracket to your tooth in its optimal position using your template.

Be sure to change your aligners weekly or as instructed. Losing a button or attachment during treatment often has little impact on the overall treatment duration.

To maintain consistent progress throughout your treatment, continue wearing the aligners as if nothing had happened, even if the attachment has fallen off.

We will assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments at your next appointment, usually scheduled 4 to 8 weeks later. If you notice a change in the fit of your aligners or experience any discomfort, please do not hesitate to contact us.
