Just Venting

My new retainers are amazing, thank you for asking. I picked them up today and am enjoying how comfortable they are.


One of my favorite things about getting new retainers is they come in a brand new storage case. The cases my orthodontist hands out are vented on the bottom. So, when I remove the retainers from my mouth and rinse them off, they can air dry inside the vented case even when it's snapped shut. Much better than soaking in a trapped puddle of drippings, right?

Well!

Someone at this orthodontic office bought "Return to owner" stickers that are sized and shaped to perfectly fit the outside of the retainers cases. A fabulous idea, really, because retainers are expensive, so yes please return to owner!
But!
They slapped that sucker right over the vents of my brand new shiny case.
Phooey.

Fortunately, I have others.
But, I had really wanted the fun new color. 🫤
