Hugo, a mailman in Charlotte, North Carolina, recently misplaced his retainer.

While delivering mail to Providence PDO, a local dentist's office, he left a handwritten message asking, “I was wondering if you make retainers. I ask because I recently lost mine.”

He never expected what came next.

The dental team not only responded—they offered to make him a brand-new retainer completely free of charge!
