Hello, I had braces from the age of 15 until 17, having them taken off at the end of 2012. The results were very good and my teeth were very straight. I wore my retainer and complied for the first year or so and then lost my retainer accidentally. My two lateral incisors started to move back slightly, more on the left side than on the right. I then found my retainer and tried to wear it again to try to move them back in line but the retainers no longer fit. The retainers are gone again and I cannot find them anywhere. I know it is too late to get a replacement seeing as I got my braces taken off nearly 3 years ago. I would like to realign the two incisors as the rest of my teeth are still straight. I can’t imagine I would need any complicated treatment but wanted some advice on what would be the best option. Would veneers be the best or an invisible brace? Or a removable plate? Thank you.

How Can I Realign Two Lateral Incisors Following Brace Treatment?
Thursday, September 10th, 2015I’ve Moved House And Lost My Retainer. Now My Teeth Have Moved. What Will I Have To Do To Get My Smile Back?
Thursday, March 13th, 2014Hello,
I want to have a retainer brace fitted as my bottom teeth have moved a lot. I did have a bottom retainer before but have lost it due to moving house. I was wondering how much the whole procedure is and how long would I have to pay? Also how long would I have to come for check-ups and how occasionally as I have to work around my job. It is starting to get me down now as I am in a lot of pain through where the teeth have moved. I just want my smile back!
My New Retainer Caused My Straight Smile To Look Misaligned, What Can I Do?
Wednesday, July 10th, 2013hi i wondered if you could please advise me on something? i have had braces on in the past, and my teeth after were perfect, but since having a retainer which i lost on a holiday my teeth moved, and in the front two teeth a large gap has occurred, i went back to the orthodontist and they moulded a new retainer which cost me 60 pound, for a retainer of the moved teeth which i wasn’t happy about, is there anyway of fitting a new brace on free of charge, as the price of braces are too expensive due to fact of i am only 18 and still in college. This means that I can’t receive treatment free through the NHS doesn’t it? I don’t know what to do, the retainer just completely ruined the new movement of my perfectly straight teeth! Surely my orthodontist should do something about this?Thanks for any advice!
