No retainers covered by insurance?

Hey, PSAC member covered under the PA agreement. I have dental insurance through Canada Life. I just went to the dentist to get a new night guard and retainer and they’ll cover the night guard but not the retainer? Apparently, that would only be covered if I was under 18.
I feel like I got a retainer replacement a few years ago. Did this change in our contract? I find I absurd that this isn’t covered. They only last a few years and I will need one for the rest of my life otherwise my teeth will shift back to where they were pre- braces.
Does anyone have any info or advice on this?
