Teeth relapse after braces

2017-05-27 13:52:02
I got my braces removed in 2013 after which I had my retainer on for about 8 months. After that I wore the retainers only at night. Since I was quite irregular in wearing them, my front teeth have started to protude a bit which is not very noticeable with naked eye but I can feel it with my tongue. I have lost my retainers so now I feel very anxious about this relapse. I don't want to put metallic braces again. What all other affordable options do I have?

You can go to the orthodontist and get new retainers . Dont avoid as it might become a case of complete relapse and then you need to undergo the treatment again .
