Lost my retainer and my parents cannot afford to pay for a new one?!


Question: Lost my retainer and my parents cannot afford to pay for a new one!?
I lost my retainer about 5 days ago and my teeth are already losing its alignment!. My parents are mad, of course, but they can't afford to fork up about $450 to replace the retainer!. What do I do till I can get the money!? I've had my braces removed about 2 years ago when I was 15 and this is the first time I've lost my retainer!. Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I don't understand why you still have a retainer!. My daughter had hers only about 5 months after the braces were removed!. Your teeth don't move that fast, call your orthodontist and ask him!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

$450 is expensive for a retainer!. mine was $80, how about you call around and see if you can get one made up for cheaper!. also, your teeth move the most at nighttime so if there's any way to stop them clenching together then, then they shouldn't go out of alignment too quickly!. otherwise, search your bins!. i've lost mine so many times!.!.!. so if you haven't searched in these places i suggest you do ;)
