Guest guest Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 I only found out recently that I already have the surgical hooks on almost all my brackets. I guess the " hooks " they use for the orthodontic elastics are okay to use for the surgery. I thought they were completely different. I have had the wire hooks for elastics too, I wonder if I will be getting them put in again before surgery as I don't have the hooks on my front teeth. For anyone who's had the surgery, were you banded in the front? > > > > Hi Everyone, > > > > > > > > I'm ready for surgery now, just on a little waiting list, and > > was > > > > wondering if anyone could tell me about surgical hooks? > > > > > > > > I've been told to go to my orthodontist a few days before I'm > > due > > > in for > > > > surgery, but I don't know what they're like?
