Well, that was quick! Already broke off a bracket, so we went back to the orthodontist about 24 hours later. Turns out, it wasn't her fault. A bottom bracket broke off because the top teeth were hitting it, so they had to put more "bite block" on her back teeth so her mouth wouldn't close all the way. "Bite block" is this blue stuff kind of like composite that they put on the teeth. It takes some getting used to.
While we were there, they also found 4 other brackets in a row on the top that were loose and falling off! The orthodontist said something must have gone wrong in the bonding process for all of those to fall off. That wasn't typical. Awesome.
We spent longer than expected getting all this fixed up, but fingers crossed we are good now!
