Braces come off, teeth moving
I had my braces taken off 4 days ago, my plates come next week. I’ve noticed my teeth feel loose and they look like they’re spacing. My last molar has turned inwards. I called my dentist but they said not to be worried they won’t move. What should I do? Will they move by next week?

It's difficult to tell without seeing your present and past photograph.ask your orthodontist about fixed retainer ..if your molar was properly placed before removing braces it can't be relapse so much within 4 days.

Teeth may feel a little loose immediately after braces have come off. Talk to your dentist about fixing a permanent retainer inside. Normally it is given when the braces are taken off to prevent any tooth movement
