Hi. I had braces when I was 14, and I am now 22. I am still wearing my removable retainers on my top teeth but the dentist I went to did not put on permanent retainers on my lower teeth. I'm wondering if I should have them installed onto my teeth since I just had my wisdom teeth removed and my lower front teeth feel very weird now. I'm worried they might move and shift to new positions. I just spent RM900 on my wisdom teeth extraction, so I'm wondering if there are any cheap options for permanent retainers for my lower teeth. Thanks

QUOTE(DrBarbarian @ Sep 13 2011, 10:40 AM) why not opt for removal lower retainers? fix retainers tend to trap food and you can't use floss too.... Sounds like a good option. Can I know how much is it? My lower front teeth feel weird after my wisdom teeth extraction it would give me a peace of mind if I know they are not shifting.Cherrie.... did you check out the lady orthodontists couple of doors from PJ orthodontic? she's pretty gentle..... I routinely refer ortho cases to her and Dr Lee(PJ ortho).....  |

QUOTE(DrBarbarian @ Sep 13 2011, 01:08 PM) lower front teeth will shift at about 20-30 years old.... nuthin to do with wisdom teeth.... this is due to remodelling of the lower jaw that coz it to move forward slightly.... Will it cause massive shifting? Or just a slight shift? |
