Hi Trisha--just had to give you some input on soldering-we use HeatShield on all surrounding wires, acrylic, etc. Also, the best and cheapest place to buy the HeatShield is from a local jewler's supply. It costs about a third of what you'd pay through a dental supply. Also, leave a very slight amt. of space between the tooth and the c clasp so the solder flows around the entire joint. Every so often--usually during a full moon--we'll get one back to be re-soldered, and like Mike, we'll do it free of charge-good p.r. Keep up your good work-I saw the pictures, too!-------------cathyz.
