retainers?????

Question

my dog just recently yes ATE my retainers the top ones.
and he messed aroudn the with bottom ones wich CAN fit in my mouth but feel a bit awkward now.
i went to the orthodontist today to get impressions done for my top.
and asked about the bottom retainer and they said the doctors with an other patient in will readjust it next time you come in to pick up your new top retainers wich i thought was a little wierd.
but i guess what im trying to say is m retainers do fit still. but jsut feel a bit off. or strange.
thiers not cracks or anything. can the doctor bend it back to fit better?
and should i continue to wear it untill i see him in 2 weeks to get my new retainers?

Answer 1

That's difficult to say without seeing the retainers. If they do not feel like they are fitting well I would call the Dentist and make sure they are comfortable with you wearing them.

Answer 2

If they know that your retainer was attacked by your dog why did they not adjust them right in the office that day? It only takes 5 minutes to do this. Unless they were severely out of whack. I would call the office and let them know that this happened and that you need to have them adjusted. You or your parent paid a lot of money to the Orthodontist he should be able to spare a few minutes to adjust them.

Answer 3

What were the recommendations from your Ortho? He should have remmended wearing them or not. I would probably not wear them tonight, and call tomorrow and ask the Ortho or his assistant what you should do. Your teeth won't move too much overnight.

Answer 4

that happens A LOT..u should make him adjust it...i would call and ask again if u should wear it for 2 weeks

Answer 5

i would call and leave a message. and have the nurse call you back
I know that my parents paid alot of money for my sisters retainer, so have your mom call and He Will answer her and call back
