My orthodontist said that next week I was coming back to get my upper brackets??

I have my spacers in and its going on for the 2nd week two days ago I got the metal bands fit and they put the spacers back in until Tuesday coming up. When they say brasckets is it the braces a s a whole as in the wire and everything. Do they usually put on the brackets and the wire at the same time????

    after you have had your spacers put in you usually wait about a week and then you go back and they will remove the spacers and apply your whole brace , including brackets & wires. so to answer your question , yes they do put the brackets and wire on at the same time

    the brackets are the little squares of metal that are glued onto the teeth.

    usually takes about an hour or so and they give you laughing gas..

    when they say brackets its just the little squares.

    the wire goes on after the brackets.

    it would be pretty weird if they put em both in at the same time..

    and painful >.<
