Re: Logical consequences and lying re: retainer
I had to wear my retainer 24/7 the first year. I took it out 2x a day to brush my teeth and clean it, then it went right back in. I always wore it.
The second year I only had to wear it at night. That didn't last long. I just kept forgetting. I think I wore it maybe 20 times at night. I'd ask what the issue is with the retainer. Does he think it looks bad? Uncomfortable? Forgetting? |

Re: Logical consequences and lying re: retainer
everyone for your input. You have certainly given me lots to think about. I think I will tackle the lying issue first and then talk about the "why" of not wearing the retainer. Like Lisa, he has to wear his 24/7 for 6 months then he can have them off for 3 hours during the day but always back on at night.
He has another appointment the orthodontist in January so maybe we can talk to him about it, maybe an alternative etc. Thank you all again!
