What should I do if I think my teeth have relapsed following treatment?

January 5th, 2011

Q.
I did an Invisalign treatment which I completed 90-95% of (I think only 2 out of 24 were left), unfortunately, I lost the last two braces in a house move so could not complete it. Since my teeth looked pretty OK, I just used the last brace I had as a retainer until Sep of this year and then stopped using it. Now I feel that my teeth might be relapsing (for e.g. that last brace won’t fit anymore), what would be the best course of action for me? I don’t really want to loose all the work that the Invisalign braces did for me. Please advise. Thanks very much!,

My dentist still hasn’t given me my retainers and I think my teeth may have moved forward again. What can I do?

December 10th, 2010

Q.
I have come to the end of my treatment, and I am not happy with the results despite being given a couple of extra retainers. The practioner says there is nothing more to do, and i believe i was missold this treatment. However, i went for my final appointment on 20th oct 2010, and they have still not given me my retainer. I have worn the last tray, but feel my teeth have moved forward again. Can this happen with such a delay? I called them and they said they forgot to call me and have booked me in next week. Thanks,

A.
