Asking for Self, Female, 31 years old, Rawalpindi
Aoa. I got my braces removed 6 yrs ago while still have my retainers on both the upper n lower teeth. I am observing slight flare and disposition of teeth. Why is it so? Does removing the retainers will further deteriote the look of teeth?
depends upon the degree of disposition and any defect in the retainer.
regards
Shifa dental clinic opposite mardan medical complex.
Mam can you visit us ?
normal time duration for wearing dental retainer is 6-12 months, after successful completion of ortho treatment. its better to have clinically and radiographically examine for further advise. Thanks

Do not remove retainers!
Walaikum Assalam. Yes teeth do tend to move if retainers not worn. Even after recommended time of wearing retainer they sometimes move. Best to wear retainers to fix the gaps followed by getting fixed retainers for both upper and lower teeth
Wsalam, relapse do occur with time if retainers are not worn, An effective approach is fixed retainers to avoid further deterioration. Your orthodontist can guide you on this.
