Answers:
They aren't indestructible!. You need to take care of them!. You shouldn't be eating hard foods, gums, or sticky candies!. You also need to be brushing and flossing everyday!. Bacteria can get under the retainer and cause decay!. If that retainer is on front teeth you may lose them due to decay-very unsightly!.
To avoid it being broken again-don't chew gum or tacky candies like taffy!. Brush every day - twice a day and floss underneath it!. If you are not taking care of it- you can cause worse problems than crooked teeth!. If you really aren't into taking care of it you should have your dentist remove it and give you a removable one instead!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
