I know numerous people who have that retainer tooth thing.  Looks like no fun.  This woman I work with, Cindy, had an extremely abusive ex-husband, and he knocked out three of her front teeth on the top right when he punched her in the face one time, and she just got her implants a week ago.  They look SO good and real!  It's crazy what dentistry can do these days.
But yeah, like I was saying about the braces thing... Yeah, they suck a lot, but the invisible retainers are MUCH better than metal chunks and wires and bright colored bands all over your crooked nasty teeth.  I've seen pleanty of Alaska Natives downtown who would be more than willing to go through what you did to have straight teeth if they had the money.
