If I hadn’t asked to tie in my molars, I’d be much closer to done right now. As it is, we’re moving back up the ranks of wire strength from square one — well, round 14, really.
Me: So, what wires are we moving to today?
New Ortho Assistant: Oh, just one size up.
Me: So, we were at…?
Assistant: …a 14, and we’re moving up to a 16.
Me: Still the round ones, then?
Assistant: Yep, round Ni-Ti*. –Did you go to dental school?
