could my retainer give me a bacterial throat infection? . i went about a month without wearing my retainer. in april a few days after i wore it again i developed a sore throat which the doctors deemed a bacterial infection. i was off the medicine and felt fine for a few days until i started wearing my retainer again. they told me i had another bacterial infection and put me on more amoxicillin. is it possible my retainers are making me sick?
hi sounds like your not really cleaning your retainer this could be your problem when you wash your teeth give it a good brush as well with tooth paste making sure its really clean. do hope this helps you. good luck
