I didnt wear my retainer for 6months like I was suppose to and now my teeth are getting crooked again. It not that bad as it was before but now I am constantly wearing my retainer 24/7. I hope that if I wear my retainer constantly they will shift back to a perfect smile. Any suggestions? Should I wear braces a second time?

I think I'm doing it this summer. I felt like the nurse tried to bully me into the metal ones too. Good luck! Shane,

That is just crazy! Why put yourself through that if it isn't bothering you or hurting you. I support your pick of your options! It won't be fun but it is temporary and it will be awesome when it is done! Besides, I will be wearing my retainers with you!

I had a tooth that was lying sideways in my lower gum and was pulled into place with braces. I didn't wear my retainers like I should have and the teeth have moved. The one that was pulled up is especially crooked. I think it would look good, but do I really want to go through the pain again while I still have the physical scars on my lip from the first one? Don't think of it as being vain, think of it as improving your mental health. I’ve been thinking about getting them again.
