Hie.. would have been Gr8 if you could attach photograph for the following gap created...
however, after ortho treatment , chances of relapse are very common.. it could be due to improper wearing of retainer regularly at the initial 3 months atleast after completion of ortho treatment.. or wearing off of ur retainer ..
Since it’s been 2 years now , so now there is very low chances for your teeth to move in desired position as u want.. u need to visit dentist for other options ...
Next Steps
Kindly consult or visit.

Hi , based on ur inputs I feel the gaps could be due to relapse and it will be mostly due to failure to wear retainers, better u take a personal visit and clarify as retainers are many types . Some times even retainers will help us to close gaps by activation

This is the common issue, whish is known as relapse reason being not to wear retainers properly. 2 years back u got the treatment and it's been so long now. Chances are less to get the position of teeth still you should consult a nearby dentist
