Corwin managed to break his braces. I suspect it is because he frequently fiddles with them and the internal rubber bands attach thereto. Enough bending and the wire that holds things in place breaks. A few hours later he broke the rest of his upper braces. His timing was good as he got a reduced brace weekend out of the deal. Even worse, he was close enough to the end that orthodontist said it wasn’t worth putting the rubber band elements back in, therefore Corwin could stop wearing rubber bands. Not teaching him good lessons. Fortunately Charles doesn’t seem to have caught on.
