Advice from Lynn
I'm Lynn, the founder and owner of DentaKit.com. I had braces for three years as an adult (and I still wear my retainers at night). I've been involved in the dental industry for over 15 years. I know firsthand how confusing the entire process of braces (or aligners) and retainers can be.
