l got my braces removed in June, and l have a removable, clear upper retainer that l wear at night, and a fixed/permanent wire retainer for the bottom.Now, in July, the glue came off on one of the bottom teeth, so l had to go back to the orthodontist to get my retainer attached again.No problem.Then on the 12th of September, it came off AGAIN.l do not understand. l do not brush like a crazed maniac; I am careful when l brush.l do not chew ice constantly, especially with my front lower teeth (sarcasm).So on the 19th, l went back, told them that it came off for the second time in less than 4 months, and they told me that ''It happens I am sorry'' and re-attached it.Now, less than 48 hours later, the whole piece of glue/cement/whatever they use has come off.The wire is still attached to the glue, but the glue is not attached to my tooth (it is been the same side all three times now).I am guessing that they did not prep my tooth right, for the third time in a row.Is this supposed to happen? Should l expect to go to the orthodontist every other week? Am l the only one who is in this situation?Thanks for your time!

i've been in a similar situation before, only not with a retainer. u see, my problem was with pokers.

the first time was actually from a good cause cuz l was really good with my rubber bands.

the second time was actually just recently when the orthodontist didnt cut my wire straight. l had it clipped for a poker, they clipped it crookedly that time, & l had to go in the SAME DAY to get it sanded down. it was horrible.

but yeah, ur scenario sounds like a case of laziness.
