Could a permanent retainer be the cause of metallic taste?
Yes, a permanent retainer could potentially cause a metallic taste in the mouth. This may result from the interaction of the metal in the retainer with saliva or from plaque buildup around the retainer, which can lead to irritation or infection. Additionally, some individuals may have a sensitivity to the materials used in the retainer. If the metallic taste persists, it’s advisable to consult a dentist for evaluation.
You have forgotten to wear your retainer probably four or five times since you got your braces off in the last month so will you need braces again or can you fix this mistake?
It depends on how much your teeth have shifted. If you can get your retainer back in your mouth, you probably don't need to go back into braces. Mind you, the retainer will be quite uncomfortable for a few days as the teeth move. Remember, you must wear your retainer daily for several years, or your teeth will shift. If you are simply not self-disciplined enough to wear a removable retainer, ask your orthodontist for a fixed retainer. This will be some sort of metal bar or wire that is cemented in place.

Can a dental crown be made to fit a retainer being worn after braces?
Yes. Technically a crown should be made to closely remember the existing tooth therefore fitting the existing retainer. However, depending upon why the tooth requires the crown the retainer may or may not fit WELL. The ideal situation is to have the crown done and the retainer remade to fit the new crown PERFECTLY. The compromising situation is to have the crown done and adjusting the retainer to fit the new crown IF POSSIBLE. Sometimes the retainer is held in the mouth by a clasp, connector, or portion of the retainer that is unable to be adjusted or changed BECAUSE of the location/shape/size of the new crown. Remaking the retainer may be simply a longer-lasting, better-fitting, easier, or cost-effective way or any combination of such to have a FUNCTIONAL retainer. Remember, the goal is to fix the tooth that requires the crown AND to keep the teeth in their proper positions.
