Oh nice, another piece of my wire retainer on my bottom teeth is falling off. Guess I get to go the next week with my tongue scraping up against pointy metal again :meru_honk:

i was somehow able to bend it back into place and have it stay there unlike previous times. hopefully if it pops out again i can replicate this.
still going to go to the ortho when i can since removing it is only like $5 per tooth and i'm so sick of this shit.

@Jens_Rasmussen yeah it's just them basically ungluing a wire that was fixed to my teeth to keep them straight after getting braces removed. nothing too crazy.

@beardalaxy Everything "ortho" usually costs a minimum of 50$ here. Is the 5$ because your insurance covers most of it?

@Jens_Rasmussen i don't have any insurance lol. i was surprised too. it seems like it'll be $60 to get it fully removed (so $12 per tooth at this point), i think it was cheaper last time because pretty much all they did was trim down the wire and the cement had already fallen off for the most part.

i also found out that to get removable retainers it'll only be like $300 which is way less than i was expecting, so i'm definitely gonna do that. gotta get some dental work done first but should be good after that.
