Lost Elastic Tie or Wire
Please call and ask if an appointment is necessary.
Wire Out of Tube
Try to place the wire back into the tube with tweezers. Place wax if uncomfortable and call for an appointment.
Poking Tie Wire
Bend the wire back with a pencil eraser. If unsuccessful, cover with wax and call for an appointment.
