I lost it last time too, so I wasted 200,000 won of my hard-earned money, and now I lost it again, sigh.. I don’t necessarily have to wear it anymore now (it’s been 4 years since I completed orthodontic treatment, and I also have a fixed retainer on the inner side of my teeth), but my dentist said it would be best to keep wearing the retainer if possible, and I’m also bothered because when I go a long time without wearing the retainer and then wear it again, my teeth feel misaligned and I get a stiff, aching pain. I want to maintain the exact state from when I first finished orthodontic treatment.
Also, after finishing all my orthodontic treatment, I had two upper wisdom teeth extracted, so since there’s empty space now, wouldn’t it be possible to move my teeth further back? Instead of spending money again to buy a retainer, I’m thinking maybe I should just spend 2.25 million won and do re-orthodontic treatment for about half a year.. (My first orthodontic treatment took 1 year, and I expect that if I do it again, it would take less time than back then. They said re-orthodontic treatment costs half the price of the first treatment, which was 4.5 million won.)
My careless personality is really my enemy But I’m also thinking maybe I should just try orthodontic treatment one more time..
