Are your teeth still straight after wearing braces?
Question:
Answers:
It depends, your teeth will be pretty much straight, but If you are like me and have to have a retainer after your braces and don't wear it enough as you should you may end up with a slightly crooked tooth or two. But on the whole they are very straight, sure a LOT straighter then they were before
I had braces on for 5 years...it ruined all my high school pics. I thought it be worth it for straight teeth for life. The year they came off I was told to wear a retainer for a while I told the dentist it started getting tight..It cracked one night in my mouth ripping my pallett. all my teeth are back to where they were 10 years later, and the enamel was worn around where the braces were! Im sorry I ever did it. Unless you really need them think about it.
Depends how vigilant you are with your retainers. My teeth look great!
