If it goes on at all, wear it!. Go ahead and make and appointment if you can, but they may say continue wearing it and it will fit eventually, OR they may say we have to make a new one!. If they make a new one it's gonna cost ya!. I was told to wear retainers for the rest of your life!. You don't have to wear it every single night, but you do have to wear it every single week for sure!. I wear mine most every night!. And yes, your teeth will try to return to their original place, but if you wear your retainer, this will keep it from doing that by retaining the position your orthodontist felt they should be at!. Wear it, you'll be glad you did!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Retainer follow up visits should be included in the fee you paid for your braces, so the best thing to do is let your orthodontist take a look at it, and let him alter it!. It is possible you have outgrown your retainers, and by cramming them back in you could actually be making your teeth go uneven!. If they are uneven in the back, you could be changing your bite, so I wouldn't recommend it!.
Your ortho can adjust the retainer to fit better, and thus make it a lot less painful too!. By cramming it in yourself, you have no idea if you are doing good or bad to your teeth!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
