Braces wire keeps slipping/falling out!?

My wire in my braces got loose in like August, and was poking my cheek. So I had to go in to the ortho and make them snap it. This happened again. And again it was like November 17 when they put a thicker wire in my mouth so it wouldn't fall out. After about two weeks it got loose, not as loose but some of it is still sticking out. I have been chewing on different sides of my mouth but that never helpe and the wire still becomes loose! And it is always on the right side. UGH HELP.

Sorry if this is confusing and thanks in advance.

    hi, you need to go to your orthodontic office asap and ask them to replace your wire, and instead of cutting wire in the end, they need to cinch it, your problem is short wire. Who ever inserted it into your mouse she.he. Cutted it too short. Ask for dentist don't stick with assistant only. Explain and request to bend wire on both sides.

    Even concept your relatively orthodontist is away for yet another week perhaps you could call the workplace and the receptiononist who works there will be waiting to grant you advice on what to do till your wellbeing practitioner comes back to repair it.
