i've had my retainer for more than half a year now, and it's still not going away. at first on the first week and the first month people kept telling me that it was going to go away after a while, once i got used to it.
but here i am, half a year with the retainer, and I still can't talk right. And I don't mean a slight lisp, or anything like that.
I can't TALK. I mean, I CAN speak, but it comes out like gibberish sometimes, unless I try really really hard.
Because of this, I'm embarassed to talk to anyone and I've sort of shut-down on myself...
my dentist told me i might have a slow tongue and that's why, but he won't do anything about it, saying i'll get used to it in a while. But it's already BEEN a while and I want my life back!
what should I do?
