Spanish term or phrase: arco con ansas para 13 y 23
This is a dental invoice for a teenager (Uruguay).

I'm looking for the correct translation of this:

Arco con ansas para 13 y 23

Arch? Brace? with loops?
I imagine the numbers relate to the teeth.

There is no other context apart from the price 3393 Uruguayan Pesos.

Thanks for your help.

looped archwire for 13 and 23


Explanation:
It might refer to these:
Stainless Steel Looped Archwire
http://www.nexadental.com/loopedarchwire.aspx

In the ISO numbering system -
13 = upper third tooth to the right from the center
23 = upper third tooth to the left from the center

Which would make sense in the context of the first reference.
