The elastic hook hurts my cheek during orthodontic treatment. Can I bend it inwards?

Pengait karet pada braket saya sedikit menonjol dan tersangkut di bagian dalam pipi saya ketika saya tertawa. Jika saya menekannya perlahan ke gigi dengan bagian belakang pinset, apakah akan patah?

Jangan memaksakan diri dengan tang atau pinset, bisa-bisa badan bracketnya patah atau giginya copot! Hal termudah untuk dilakukan adalah dengan menempelkan lilin ortodontik seukuran lentil pada pengait itu. Beritahu dokter Anda saat janji temu bahwa dia akan membengkokkannya ke dalam dalam 2 detik dengan tang khusus.
