Orthodontic preparation

Anybody have to have teeth "slenderized". Before surgery?   Or any other unexpected procedure or movements.

What do you mean by "slenderized"?  My orthodontist took a drill in between my lower front teeth to create small gaps and then closed the gaps with braces.  Is that what you're referring to?

Yeah I think that is it. And then they retract teeth, I think to match upper arch better.  You are making two upper teeth larger too if I remember correctly??
