Answers:
I don't know about the insurance problem. You shouldn't be embarrased to go to the dentist because he's seen everything. There are many people out there with the same problems as you so it is not something new for the dentist. I think that in the beginning you will have to wear braces because retainers can only be used for smaller problems. I think you should definetly go to the dentist.
