I have a permanent retainer on the back of my front 6 bottom teeth. I got a permanent one after I got my braces off for the second time (I had braces twice because my teeth moved after the first time). Now, even the permanent retainer isnt keeping my teeth from moving. One of my front bottom teeth has moved very much out of line with the others, but it is still glued to the retainer. This retainer was supposed to work for basically the rest of my life, and after just two months, it isnt working. Why is this and what should I do while I am waiting to get into the orthodontist?
My permanent retainer is not working?
Not sure of "Why", but if the wire is still glued to the tooth it should not move. Its possible that they may have to light a of wire which wont be strong enough to hold your teeth. I would call them and let them know that it is moving and want to get in asap. They should not charge you for this.
Reply:well if you cant get into the orthodontist, you cant do anything.
Reply:Do you have a removable retainer that you could wear in the mean time? I agree, you should call your orthodontist and let them know what is happening. 1-2 weeks will likely not be a problem, but more than that could allow further shifting.
