I beg to differ; if my son lost the $150.00 retainer that was RETAINING the $7,500.00 worth of orthodontia I had paid for, and didn't quickly replace it, his life would be in danger. We know for sure its in the house somewhere but we can't find it. you cant swallow a retainer. I can't find it in my bed and I changed and shook through all of my sheets and blankets.
I'm really scared it'll cut up my insides and I'll have to go to the ER or something.
you should wear it when you sleep cause you dont want your teeth to … I checked so many times on the floor and under my bed and nightstand and in the hallway. We've litterally looked in every nook and cranny but we cant find it.
My friend is staying at my house and she can't find her bite plane witch is about the same size as a bottom retainer. Most serious, of course, is the risk of pneumonia.
Taking proper care of your dentures means removing them at night for a thorough cleaning and soak. I'm extremely paranoid that I swallowed my bottom retainer last night while I was sleeping. its too big and its made to fit your teeth perfectly, so its not going to start crawling down your throat by itself. It is possible that it may vibrate as you play, which can be uncomfortable. Although in the past it was considered okay to wear dentures overnight, we are realizing more and more that such a choice can lead to negative consequences. Only kidding, of course, but you had better get a new one, or your freshly straightened teeth will drift all … A typical retainer should not interfere with your ability to play the clarinet.
Is it possible to swallow a retainer? The last time she remembers having it is is last night and we havent left the house since then.
