Re: Sara: surgical hooks and teeth cleaning

[Guest guest]

Sara,

Well that's good to hear becasue like I said my cleaning is exactly 2

weeks before surgery. I can't imagine having to pick out more food

from the hardware. I am now having to pick out food in the spaces

the OD is creating for the segmenting of the jaw. Not to mention the

food that gets caught up in the springs. Geez, I long for the day of

only teeth to clean...(haha)

Yea...I think we are going to be pro's at cleaning our normal teeth

after all this is over!!! BTW--June 15th is my bday lol and its

also the day after my surgery. I guess I should try to get in for

a cleaning pre-surgery too, but my dentist needs the wires off and I

really dont want them touching my surgical wires.
