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

Gummikroken på mitt fäste sticker ut något och fastnar på insidan av kinden när jag skrattar. Om jag försiktigt trycker den mot tanden med pincettens baksida, går den sönder?

Tvinga den inte själv med tång eller pincett, du kan bryta konsolkroppen eller lossa tanden! Det enklaste man kan göra är att fästa en linsstor mängd ortodontisk vax på den kroken. Tala om för din läkare vid ditt besök att han/hon kommer att böja den inåt på 2 sekunder med en speciell pincett.
