I wore my retainer for the recommended time, but my teeth moved, can I have braces again?

Q.

Hi there,
When I was a teenager I had braces and my teeth were resonably straight after treatment, and I wore my retainer for the recommended time. However, over the years my teeth have pretty much went back to the way they were before, especially the bottom teeth which are perticularly crooked.
I was wondering what options are available to me to straighten my smile as it is really affecting my confidence, I have lost my bite and find my overal oral health is being affected?
Another issue I have always had is that I have a very gummy smile which has always caused me confidence issues but I never thought I could do anything about it. I am just looking for some general advice on what options I have and how much this type of treatment would cost? I am 22 years old.
Many thanks,

My teeth have relapsed after braces, what should I do?

Friday, March 18th, 2011
Q.

Hi.
I have had braces for around 2 years, and they were taken off last June….
I wear my retainer every night without fail. Recently though, my top 2 front teeth have begun to separate, so it looks like there is a little hole between the two teeth at the top. When I had braces, my front two teeth didn’t have a problem, it was other teeth.
Will I have to have braces again to fix this? Are there other ways this can be dealt with?
I am so unhappy because I take really good care of my teeth, no fillings or anything, is there anything I can do to close the gap??
Wearing my retainers don’t seem to reduce the problem…

Hi
Three of my front lower teeth are severely out of line/over crowded. My Dentist has advised that a brace would not solve the problem. What are the other options available to me?
