Guest guest Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Hi All: At my ortho appointment today the OD took more molds of my teeth and stated that at my next appointment he would be taking the archwires out. Why does the archwire have to come out before the surgery? Is it replaced with surgical wires and if so, what is the difference in the wires? Yes, I should of asked him at the appointment, but it is funny how you don't think of these things until after the appointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
