Lost my retainer but don't have enough money to fund for another, will my teeth be okay?

Asked By:Steph14742

I had my brace removed 2 weeks ago but lost it at a meal last week, I've been to get a new mould on my bottom teeth and will have it ready for Friday but my parents didn't have enough for both retainers. I can't ask for the top one because that's another £60 they will have to pay which they really can't afford and I'm currently in sixth form so can't get a job due to revision. Is there any method I could use at home to stop my teeth from moving until I have enough money to buy a new one?
