Please wear your retainers till the dentist advuses you to take them off or removes them. Otherwise relapse or going back to previous state will usually occur.

Usually retainers are given after orthodontic treatment and they should be religiously used post removal of braces. Orthodontic relapse usually occurs when retainers are not properly used. Please see your orthodontist for your problem.
