Yeah, don't try to fix it. This may make it even worse. Just leave it alone, call your orthodontist's office ASAP and tell them about the broken bracket, and they'll fix it as soon as possible.
And also, in the meantime, if you are feeling any discomfort from the broken bracket, maybe use those little wax tubes that they gave you after you got your braces on. (Hopefully they gave them to you lol).

i would go to the orthodontist as soon as you can. ive had like 3 broken brackets, 2 the same one. and id wait till my appointment to get them fixed and that increased my treatment time. ive also missed 3 appoinments which also increased my treatment time...so now im having them on for 3 years instead of 2 and a half!

you cant do anything untill you go back to the ortho. when i had braces i broke them all the time dont worry about it its common and unles it bothers you there is no need to go back till your next appointment Health Question & Answer
it happens to me like a couple times, probably about 5 times already. just leave it alone and when you go back to the place, they'll just reattach it again for you. no worries.Health Question & Answer
