My dentist told me i needed it only at night... and she told me that i should have it on as long as i can .... 2 years ago.
I was never too strict to myself about it... and havent been diligent for more than 1.5 years. So what should I do? Do you think it'll help to start frmo now? Cuz it still mostly fits... Do you think my teeth will go back without my having to go back to the orthodontist? |

Gahh! I hate wearing my freakin retainers >.< I have both top & bottom retainers too...oh goody for me
Anyways, I haven't really been wearing them like I should but what I do like about them is that I can tighten/loosen them to my liking (but I am supposed to tighten top every 2 weeks;bottom every month equivalent to a yr). Another reason is cuz I don't really have a proper case to use/carry the retainers. I am currently using a denture bath as my case but its so big & clunky that it won't fit in my bag. Btw where can I buy actual retainer cases? |
