Question: Will my teeth go back to normal if i didnt wear my retainer? (i wear it now)?
Ok so i had braces and got them off october 28th 2010, i've been wearing my retainer but then i kinda stopped in december. then started again in january then stopped altogther. I've been sucking my thumb (the reason i got braces) and my teeth slightly receeded. if i wear my retainer everyday and night and don't suck my thumb, will my teeth go back to how it was when i frist got my braces off? because i really dont wanna go to high school with bad teeth :( ps. it still fits
Answers:
Yes. The retainer will push your teeth back into place. It will probably hurt for a while, but it will be okay :)
Wear it a lot. Cause if you don't your teeth will shift. And by the way.. If you don't want to go to school with bad teeth why are you not trying to stop sucking you thumb??
No one likes a thumb sucker..
Theyll get a lot better but not quite to the same point. If it still fits you probably still have good teeth though!
