On Sunday the button that was turning one of my molars popped off. Problem is they can only fit me in Friday to put it back on. I know when they put the button on the released the molar from the wire, but I am also wearing an elastic on the molar to one of the k9’s on the top. Should I keep wearing the elastic or just keep it off till Friday? I trying to call the office but they are super short staffed this week so feel like I am bugging them if I call.
