Retainer!


Question Posted Friday October 6 2006, 11:23 pm

I just got my braces off and got a retainer yesterday i forgot the case and put it in my bag with my gym clothes so i didnt think anything would happen to it.(but i was wrong.) So i go 2 put it in at night and the front wire is all croked. So i was able to bend it back so it looks normal now its just a little tight. I'm just afaid it going to bend my teeth in way i don't want it to cuz i might have bent it back wrong. Should i tell my mom (even though she'll get really mad) and go 2 the ortho asap or just wear it @ nite and tell him next app. in likke 4 weeks??? thanks for the help!!! i need it!!

You could wait 4 weeks, but that might be a bit long. Tell your mum to make you a quicker appt, saying it's an emergency. It's easy for it to be bent back into shape, too. So don't worry too much :)!

Go back to the orthodontist and have him adjust the retainer. Yes...you might actually ruin your teeth if it is too tight in the wrong place. Don't wait for 4 weeks.

Tell your mom. She will definitely be more angry if you wear the retainer and it ruins the teeth she paid for you to have. She'll probably be mad at first, but in the long run, it's worth it.

you should probably tell your mom... Your teath really arent loose to being straight (although you probably had braces for a year or more) So if you dont wear your retainer they will try to move back to wear they use tp be... Exspecailly since you just got them off they will move faster...So tell your mom so they can straighten it back out... Cause 4 weeks is to long to wear something on your teath that might be in the wrong shape cause then you teath might become out of place.. and all the money ur parents spent on them I think she be more mad at that then you bending the frame
