Things didn't quite go to plan...

Hello guys,

So the last time I updated you, I think I had a bottom retainer but no top retainer because they couldn't get it in. I went back to my next appointment and they managed to get the top retainer in, however the retainer then split in my mouth and they had to make another top retainer. They still gave me the broken one to wear, because they could tell that my top teeth were moving at a fast rate, so they sent me on my way with the broken top retainer and they would contact me when it was ready.

Fast toward to the following Tuesday, and I got a phone call saying that my retainers were ready, however, between the last appointment and that phone call, I had contracted not one but two coldsores! My orthodontist don't treat patients with coldsores, so I had to wait even longer to get my top retainers. A week later, and I phoned the orthodontist and went in pretty much 2 days later and got my top retainers. I got my top retainer on the 15th February so I've had them for just over 1 week now. But I can finally show you some pictures of my retainers.

Bottom Retainers but no top?!

Hello,

So today was the day I got my retainers, or shall I say retainer. I only got my bottom retainer today because they tried to get my top retainer in and it just wouldn’t go in, so I have to go back on Saturday at 10:05am to get my top retainers. They had to do another impression for my top teeth which was actually a lot smoother than the impression they did on Tuesday. I was really looking forward to showing you them in all their glory but I am going to save it for Saturday, because I want to keep you all in suspense.

So I shall see you all on Saturday for a post about retainers!

Bye guys
