But I have permanat retainers on top and bottom so that has helped some of the movement! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-639356 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 10:23:38 +0000 swurlygurl 639356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't worn mine for about 5 years now, and my bottom teeth have already gotten crooked again. :(<br /> I'm so mad at myself! I need to go get new retainers fit to the shape of my teeth now, so they don't get any worse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-639340 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 10:20:25 +0000 mynoahbear 639340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear my top retainer every night. I stopped wearing the bottom one because they're too tight and hurts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-639089 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 09:17:26 +0000 Alivoo01 639089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but I really should because my teeth have shifted! I quit wearing mine sometime in college. Doubt they even fit now. Boo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-639035 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 09:05:30 +0000 MrsSCB 639035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES, every night and I feel anxious if I go away and accidentally leave them at home! I'm paranoid about those years in braces going to waste if they move back. DH's sister's teeth totally went back to being crooked because she didn't wear hers and now she wants to get braces again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638980 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:53:55 +0000 LindsayInNY 638980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went from nightly to every other night to once a week (every Sunday). Last year mine broke and I just got a new one last month! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638881 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:35:19 +0000 JerricaBenton 638881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a permanent retainer on my bottom front teeth but I haven't worn a regular retainer for 15 years or so! My teeth haven't shifted that I can tell though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638853 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:30:51 +0000 Springtime 638853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't even know where mine are! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638851 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:30:28 +0000 prettylizy 638851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good for you. I found my retainers when we moved a few years back, they don't even go on anymore!! They now sit in the bottom drawer of my jewelery box mocking me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638848 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:29:40 +0000 Weagle 638848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still do! Not every night, but most nights. They're 10 years old, but they still work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638845 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:29:23 +0000 dagret 638845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh I wish I did. I have a permanent retainer on my lower teeth though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638711 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 07:50:43 +0000 ShootingStar 638711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do! But then I had invisalign before my wedding a year ago, and If I don't wear them then all that torture was for nothing. Plus I can tell a difference in my bite right away if I don't wear them. Hopefully one day my teeth will stop moving. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638698 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 07:46:41 +0000 blackbird 638698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my braces taken off in 6th grade....so uh, almost 15 years ago? I definitely don't wear them anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638683 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 07:40:52 +0000 2PeasinaPod 638683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish I had when I was younger. I hate my teeth and my overbite. Eventually, I'll get back there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638681 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 07:39:41 +0000 Caly 638681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, I'm impressed! My dog actually took a lil chunk out of mine years ago. I kinda gave up after that &amp; have been too lazy to get it replaced. Now I'm feeling guilty...heh </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-your-retainers#post-638662 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 07:29:18 +0000 autumnlove 638662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear mine every night! :-) I really need to get them tightened soon! </p>
