I was on tray 10 out of 19 when I got sick and was unable to wear my retainers for about 2 months. I know I probably shouldn't have, but I put both tray 10's in tonight and they still feel good (not loose like I had been wearing them for 2 weeks already but I was able to get them in with relative ease). Wore them for about 3 hours and the pain felt the same as starting any new tray. I also wear rubber bands with mine (my teeth are pretty straight but I have an underbite). Should I continue?
