I got out of school half an hour early today to get my braces taken off. It’s been two years, so I’m understandably relieved. Unfortunately, I still have to wear retainers. Retainers are arguably worse than braces, since they take up more room. However, the benefit is that I don’t have to wear them all the time… xD. They kinda screw with my enunciation though. I’ll be doing random speech exercises to get the ability to say “th-” back for the next couple of days.

Retainers are horrible. I think I’d rather have worn braces forever
Why spoil the surprise???
Pretend you still have them and go to school and see how long it takes ppl to notice..
i only had to wear retainers at night after I got them off which was really nice
why is the post box looking weird (like it’s shifted)?
I only wore my retainers for half the time I was supposed to :shifty:
My orthodontist couldn’t find anything wrong though :]
Haven’t worn braces OR retainers. Ever. Yes, be jealous
hey, retainers arent that bad. the annoying part is that when u hav to eat, u hav to take them off, brush them at night, and you talk funny, but at least they dont hurt as much as braces do, and u dont hav to go to your orthodontist as often
