Retainer Talk
Hi there! So I just got my braces removed last Saturday, so now I'm wearing retainers.
Wearing them really makes it hard to talk so I tried to do my research online and a lot of websites said that I'll eventually get used to it and it'll go away after 2-3 days.
It's already Thursday and I still have the retainer lisp. As much as possible, I still talk to people, even though my friends keep making fun of me. I only remove my retainers during meals though.
Is it because I'm not talking enough?-___- I even tried reading a book aloud when I first got my retainers.
Any ideas? I'd like to quit being made fun of now.

i only wear mine at night. the first couple weeks i wore it all the time. and at first people laughed, but then i made it into fun. like i told jokes with it and would say the pledge with it. soon enough everyone thought it was great. but u dont really have to wear it during the day as long as you put it in once you get home.

To get rid of your retainer lisp faster one trick that worked for my cousin will probably work for you to, I told her to read a little passage called the "Rainbow Passage". And she repeated it quite a few times, and as she got used to it, it went away. Tell me if it Works for you :)
