If you have finished with your orthodontic treatment and are wearing retainers (or will be soon), this is a special place to connect with others in your (enviable) situation. Ask a question or make a comment about life post-braces.
Grr, this lisp seems to have got no better in the past 5 days.... in saying that sometimes sentences come out perfect and others are completely muffled. People are having trouble understanding me : (
On the plus side, I do have brilliant new teeth, and meal time is a joy (get to leave the retainers in their case for a while!!)
It does get better. I am still lisping after a week and I whistle on my "S"s. But it is definitely getting better......Keep talking!!!
