Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I've done it for >10 years.

Some people won't wear it and their teeth won't move at all for the rest of their life, some people won't wear it and then will have to do braces again later in life. For me I grind my teeth and my tongue is slightly too big for my mouth so I need to wear it. Every time I put it in I can feel how much my teeth have shifted lol.

At a certain point I stopped wearing my retainers and now I have a tooth gap in front again. Just gotta live with it.
