Pendulum Appliance

1. A part is loose or broken

Call us to book an appointment for a repair or replacement. A charge may apply.

2. A part is sharp

Place wax, BraceEze, or soft sugar-free gum over any poking sharp end. Call to book an appointment.

3. Getting an ulcer in the roof of the mouth

Call us for an appointment. In the meantime, rinse twice-daily using an antiseptic mouthrinse such as Corsodyl.

4. Painful or loose teeth

It is normal to experience sore teeth during the treatment. It is also normal that the teeth become loose- it's the only way that they will move. Teeth will usually be tender for about a week after each visit to adjust the appliance.

Take a painkiller to help and continue to chew as normal. If you have severe pain and more than a week has gone by- please contact us for an appointment.
