Does anyone know how to clean their retainer? Mine's kind of sick?

Question

As i said. Its pretty gross!

Answer 1

Yes I have a retainer. It depends what kind you have.

If you have the clear plastic retainer that fits perfectly over your teeth and is molded than you clean it by taking ur toothbursh and putting on regular soap (like handsoap is what i used) and scrubbing it, then rinsing it off well with water.

If you have a wire retainer with like the metal strip that runs across your teeth use your tootchbursh and scrub that with toothpaste.

Both are very easy to clean and you're supposed to do it everyday, but i dont. If you dont feel like doing it everyday or everytime you brush like i was told, then be sure to rinse it off with water everytime you take it out of your mouth

oh and you can also put them in a cup of listerine or mouth wash after brushing if you'd like to make them extra minty :)
