How long did you wear your retainer after finishing your braces?
It hasn't been long since I finished my braces, but I've heard a lot of people say that the real care starts now, so I'm a little nervous.
While I was getting braces, I just had to do as the hospital told me to, but since I have to take care of the retainer on my own, it was actually kind of a hassle.
Especially since there are a couple of days when I skip it before going to sleep, I'm worried that I might end up moving again at this rate.
People around me say that after a few years, it will be fine to just wear it at night, but others say they keep wearing it, so I don't even know what the standard is.
For those of you who have finished orthodontic treatment, are you still wearing your retainers consistently?
I would also like to hear how you managed it during the first few months.

- 02CommentsIf there are no issues with your teeth or X-rays, it could be a temporary symptom caused by fatigue or stress. You may experience throbbing pain if your gums are tired or if you have a habit of clenching your teeth while sleeping. Please brush your teeth with warm water, get plenty of rest, and monitor the situation a little longer. If the symptoms persist, I recommend getting a follow-up examination at a different dental clinic.411026.10.13

- 01CommentsYes, even if they look fine on the outside, it is a good idea to check old crowns regularly. Even if the crown itself hasn't cracked, cavities can form between the crown and the tooth, or the bonding can weaken, making it difficult to detect these issues just by looking. Especially for old crowns, it is advisable to check the edges of the crown, the condition of the gums, the presence of internal cavities, and the condition of the tooth roots and surrounding bone during regular checkups. X-rays can also be used for verification if necessary. However, there is no need to replace a perfectly good crown simply because it is old. If there is no pain, discomfort when chewing, food getting stuck, or swollen gums, many people choose to keep their crowns while monitoring their condition.535026.09.28

- 03CommentsYes, it is a good idea to check old dental prosthetics periodically, even if they look fine on the outside. Prosthetics like crowns or bridges may appear fine on the outside, but cavities can form on the inner teeth or the adhesive strength can weaken. If it were me, during a regular check-up, I would check for: cavities on the edges of the prosthetics whether there is any swelling or receding of the gums if there is any discomfort or pain when chewing and, if necessary, the condition of the tooth roots and surrounding areas using X-rays. I think I would check these things together.603026.09.28
