15/f. i'm missing a tooth. it is the one right next to my front teeth on my right side. i just got my braces off today so on my retainer the orthodontist attached a fake tooth so that when i wear my retainer it looks like i'm not missing a tooth. but what do i do when i eat lunch? is it bad to eat with a retainer in?
also is it weird to kiss with a retainer in? because i'd be too embarrassed to take it out.
thanks =] (link)

I have a retainer and i am fine with it. I would fixodent and put it on your retainer so you can eat food without it coming off. I dont use the fixodent anymore cuz i dont want to but it is so nice to have because otherwise you will be playing with it and it wont be doing what it needs to do. And dont take it out at night because then your retainer will fit weird but will straighten out your teeth again. Its fine for kissing as long as you use the fixodent.

Yes it is perfectly safe for retainers i used to use it and it didnt do anything wrong to the retainer. and it is not expensive. It is normally used for dentures to keep them in place.
