ok so i just got a bottom retainer and ther was like a bump in it that was really bugging me. so i got home from school, took a lighter and a razor. first i got the bump really hotso it was soft them i started to cut it off with the razor. i know that plastic gives off like a toxic smoke when it burns and i recognized the smell when i was burning the retainer so i was jut wondering if like the toxin was in the burnt area?

thanks
 
deffinalty wasnt a bad idea, but to make sure swish some bleach in your mount but make sure to swallow it, then put in the retainer
 
why didnt you go back to the orthodontist? NSers these days rely too much on newschoolers for medical advice
 
cuz i cant drive. and i really didnt feel like it. i did it neways. i just cut the plastic so it prolly wont fuck up my teeth. it fits well now though
 
uhh, whats with the bleach, the other guy was joking. burning plastic isnt going to release bacteria, the toxic chemicals from burnt plastic won't "die" from bleach
 
so uh yea i just got hit by a car and i think my leg is broken theres blood everywhere and the bone sticking out. do you think i should go to the doctor or do you think it will heal up on its own

 
my dad's a dentist, i am an expert on these things, i have gone to so many dental emergencys with him i could prolly be a dentist my self.  I don't think it is toxic but you should have gone back to the orthodonist and they would have fixed it for free.  you could have atleast called them and let them tell you how to fix it
 
Yeah, I'm sure the years of hard work and thousands of dollars your dad spent to become a dentist just kinda rub off on you.
