So, Say You… are almost 30 and think it’s a glorious idea to go back to your childhood orthodontist and get a new retainer. $350 later, you realize you have the most god-awful lisp when wearing the retainer that is supposed to never come off. How do you keep your dignity throughout your work day and on? Do you ditch it or try and use your lisp to gain sympathy from the general public?
I think you should wear it a week or so and see if you get used to it. Weigh the long term results. If you just can’t take it talk to your doctor about other possible options.
If you decide to ditch it make sure to donate it if you can!
