as long as it isn't the back tooth then just take the bracket off and you'll be good for a week or so.

just let it hang off, its actually fun you can flip it with your tongue when youre bored and stuff...then go to the dentists when you get back and get it glued back on...

all you have to do is cut the rubber band thing that holds the bracket on

Ya I'd say take it off. It might fuck with your tooth. Take off the small rubber thing and itll fall off. I get mine off tomorrow! Im fucking 18 now and still have braces, but not tomorrow! Fuck you world!

270 on too.
I would let the bracket hang there and if it gets in your way snip the rubber band and remove it, then go when you get back. I had them for 3 yrs, and two expanders, tons of retainers and those stupid looking head mask things to wear at night with multicolored rubber bands all over the place. it sucked, but now my teeth are nice and aligned.

head gear?

it was always nice when you rolled over in your sleep, and the wire would disconnect from the head band and catapult off your face and across the room at 95+ miles an hour.

yeah, that was it. if the rubberband smacking into my eye didn't wake me up then in the morning it would be all lopsided and hurt like hell, and for the first hour of school I would have all these lines on my face from it. I searched google for a pic of it but they don't have the crappy one I had to wear. so you had to wear it too, sucked didn't it?

headgear sucked, so did bands
