When did you get your braces off? Sophmore year of high school....so I think that is around 98ish...sounds about right
How old are you now? 21
Do you still wear your retainer? No. I got my wisdom teeth out about a year after my braces were taken off, so I couldn't wear it for like a month. During that month, my teeth moved
If you don't, have your teeth moved/changed back to what they were? Not totally. But my teeth weren't really messed up to begin with...my problem is my jaw is too small for all the teeth that I have, and it was creating speech problems and THAT was why I needed braces/retainers in the first place(for all you speech pathaologists and audiologist out there- I had a tongue thrust). I had a retainer and/braces from 2nd grade to high school. THe only tooth that moved was one of the eye teeth, by IMHO as long as the teeth in the 6 front that show when I smile are straight, I don't care about the other ones.
ETA: I never had the one on the bottom. It didn't fit in my mouth. Apparently, there is no bottom retainer small enough to fit me, cause while the top jaw got spaced out thanks to the retainer, the bottom never did.
