Tooth alignment
Greetings
I have had braces placed few years back to push the teeth back and it worked fine. Now my concern is that my teeth are not in line i.e I have got two front teeth which is a bit bigger than the nearby ones. So when I smile that two teeth shows themselves distinctly and I feel now the braces did not do justice of what I actually needed. A confident smile.
Thank you

Post removal of braces, it is necessary to wear retainers for approximately 1 year to prevent relapse. So if your teeth were aligned at the end of the treatment and is going back to its original place now, your retention period might not have been adequate.
