Alright so when I was thirteen years old I had braces for about a year and a half and got them taken off. It is now bugging me that my teeth aren't straight straight, they're straight, but it doesn't even look like I had braces, because when people have braces they're teeth are uber straight. Is there anyway where my teeth can be a bit straighter then they are right now without having braces? PS I put in my retainer everynight, but it's not helping. I also remembered seeing an ad for invisible retainers to make your teeth straighter. How is that? I'm looking for something that isn't very expensive because my family is on a budget right now.
Thank You!

Go to your orthodontist and have him check if your retainer isn't brocken or too big/small for your mouth. If it doesn't fit properly then it won't do the job. Ask him about tightening the retainer because that might help.
You're talking about Invisalign. Invisalign is a see-through tooth gaurse which slowly makes your teeth straighter (but works). I know a lot of people who used them, however, if you're on a budget then they are not right for you. They tend to run to $5000. [ ImFakingHotPink's advice column | Ask ImFakingHotPink A Question ]
