Hello ! There could be two issues with respect to your earlier treatment
1. This could be a case of relapse, which usually occurs by the patient's negligence to wear a retainer
2. Also could depend on orthodontists skill, always visit an orthodontist for correction for alignment of teeth.

You will have to complete the treatment again and then the alignment will be better. Visit an orthodontist and get the proper consultation

Hi... I can see that there is some retained malallignment present. Its ideal to redo your braces treatment. I would suggest to use alligners for your case. It would be faster and more comfortable even easy to maintain. But, even conventional brace or self ligature braces will also do the job. Please see to that you use retainers for adequate time.
But if you want Immediate correction, you can get your smile designing done(not recommend for you)
