Hi guys I could do with some advice rn. I got my braces off in 2021 and last year I lost my bottom retainer and haven’t worn one since, but I have been wearing the top one. My bottom teeth have already moved slightly so I’ve booked an appointment to get a replacement fitted (will probably also get a top replacement since it’s old now) which is £100 just for the bottom. Since my teeth have shifted slightly, is it worth it to get braces again just for the bottom so straighten it out and does anyone know how much this would cost in London? I reckon I’d only need it for around two months. Or should I just get the retainer and keep my teeth how they are rn?

I think I’ve spent too much time on social media recently, but this whole trend of women removing their hijabs and loadsss of opinions on Islam and the hijab from both Muslims and non Muslims is really getting to me. I don’t feel like this is a topic I can discuss with people on my life so I’m seeing advice here instead for anyone who could offer it. There are so many valid arguments from both sides and I’m quite an open minded person, sometimes a bit too much to the point where I can’t make decisions for myself or pick sides because I just understand both sides too much. I chose to wear a hijab two years ago but recently I’ve been feeling really out of place everywhere I go wearing it, and I also don’t know if I’m wearing it because I believe it is the right thing to do, or if it’s just because I feel like I will upset lots of people by removing it. I know I’m not the best with my words so I’m not sure if the point is really coming across here but I’d appreciate any words of advice.
