Orthodonists/Dentists answer please!?!


Question: Orthodonists/Dentists answer please!?
I got this Shammy retainer thing, and my orthodonist told me not to take it out unless i have to clean it.
The problem is she told me to keep it even when I'm eating, but whenever I eat with it, it pops off and it doesn't work.
#BQ: Is it okay if I take it out for like 10 minutes while I'm eating, then put it back in when I'm done?
(so it would be off for a total of like 30 minutes everyday)

Answers:

I would take it out while eating.
I've had countless retainers over the years and I find that eventhough you take them out for a bit each day, they won't get broken from eating with them in.



i think it will be better to phone your dentist,till then,however,i don't think 10 minutes would do much harm
