My retainer was bit and chewed a little by my friends dog, I soaked it in hot water and was able to get the bumps and bent part out of it, I'm going to the dentist Friday, the retainer fits in my mouth fine now it's just a bit snug(but I kinda expected it to be snug because I went 2 days almost with out it) ,do you think I should purchase a new one?
