Sam's new retainer

Thanks to a bad cross-bite that left a permanent tooth rather loose, Sam got a cool new blue retainer.  Here he is, trying it on for the first time.  It was amazing how fast it worked!  The teeth were back in place after 3 days.  Unfortunately, after only 8 weeks it ended up in the cafeteria trash can.  We'll be purchasing a new one soon.  ☹
