Time Delay
Is this normal? It appears as though I'm going to go a full day with no retention. They are going to deband me, take molds, order the retainer, then I am to come back in the afternoon for the retainer. I'm concerned about so much time with no retention. After four years, my teeth are very maliable. Is this a normal strategy?
I'll second what Lionfish said. I got my retainers about a week after my braces were taken off. This was true for my uppers in April, 2007 and my lowers in October, 2007. Yep, it was just about 6 months between them.
And, I have been wearing my upper (Essix) faithfully ever night for just about a year now and my lower (Hawley) faithfully every night for just about six months. Both are fine.
