Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Hi there Steve, that sounds a bit nasty, what exactly do they do when they wire you up? Are you have upper and lower done?

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Will be having upper, lower and genio this friday. Wires were wrapped around each tooth which connects to an arch bar that goes across all teeth. Pain is better but I still can't eat tough foods. I guess I'm getting a taste of things to come.

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 I never had arch bars. But this is more testimony why I think i'd rather have had the regular brackets and wires. They don't require gas for installation, and it's not that painful to put them on. Or at least it wasn't for me. Not fun, but not real pain. Just think what you've been missing all these months, steve... I'm sorry you're hurting now, though. Cammie > > Hello everyone, > > Had my pre-op work done yesterday for my June 10th surgery.
