    Phone your orthodontist and explain what's happened.

    Your teeth might move, they might not ... but is it worth the risk and is it worth getting stressed over? Please make the call and good luck getting new retainers that you'll love and never loose!
    After 5 years, 11 months and two days of stainless steel brackets ... my teeth now have upper and lower bonded, gold wire, retainers and removable clear retainers!
