I'm 25 and, like a good boy, I have worn my retainers for a decade now ever since the braces came off (while sleeping, after getting the go ahead to stop using them full time). Just today I spent nearly $200 to get a new top one since it was starting to break.
It makes me wonder if I practically threw money away, since it definitely feels like most people don't wear them past their teens yet their teeth still look good and barely shift.
I mean hell, my parents spent thousands to give me good teeth, figure I should take care to keep them that way, yeah?
Who else is out here keeping up with their retainers?
