Glued retainer bent
I have a glued wire on my top and bottom teeth. I had to wait a week for my retainers and during that week my front teeth opened 1mill. My dentist was very confused why my teeth had opened. He said that I have to wear my retainers full time to hopefully close my gap. Ive noticed now that the glued retainer has been and made a v between the gap of my front teeth. The retainers are very tight and my front teeth are very sore. Is it fine to have the glued retainer bent in the gap of my front teeth?
