@hazlin @Jens_Rasmussen i think i know what you mean, but i don't even have a way of heating it up so that ain't gonna happen lol. that is basically what they do at the ortho though, just use a concentrated heat gun to melt the glue and then snip the wire and put some new glue on there.

@hazlin @Jens_Rasmussen i had a coworker telling me how he clipped it with a guitar string cutter and then he filed it down with a jewel file. crazy work.

@histoire3 i have to get some work done on those teeth too, because when i was a teen i really didn't take care of my teeth at all and i've just been basically staving off the inevitable for the past 10 years. the dentist won't work on those teeth unless i get the retainer off though so i have to get it off, pay for the dental work, then get a new retainer which costs even more money.... and by then they'll probably have shifted a bit anyway. kind of just gotta go with the flow i guess.

@Jens_Rasmussen yeah it's just them basically ungluing a wire that was fixed to my teeth to keep them straight after getting braces removed. nothing too crazy.
