Morgan Clark’s wire is off on the left side of her mouth. The wire also moved so now it is sticking out at the right side. Also many of her bands on her teeth are broken and need to be replaced.

Hello,
Looks like the wire “traveled” to the right. Solution is to reverse it. Grab a tweezer to lift the wire on the left side and place it back in the slot, it is currently BELOW the slot. Once you have a good grip, slide the wire back to the left until it goes into the tube on her last molar on the left. If you actually get it back in the left tube, she will be fixed and you can have a summer job with us! If you cant get it all the way to the left, use a strong nail clipper to cut the long end so it doesnt bother her anymore. Bare minimum, she will be out of trouble and we can set you up with a visit for a new wire ASAP. By the way, I don’t see any broken bands, although your pics are limited. I only see a broken chain. That’s easy. If she has broken bands, thats much more involved. Please confirm after you tried to fix this wire.
