Does Front Teeth Being Loose And Moving After Being On Retainer Every Night Mean Unstrengthened Bone?
I had my braces taken off a year ago, wear my retainer every night, and my front top teeth feel loose. When I bite down my bottom front teeth hit the back of my top front teeth and when I place my index finger on my teeth, I can feel the front ones move with that. Does it sound like the bone hasn't strengthened back up to hold my teeth in place? Have you heard of this before or should I be concerned?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I understand your problem but this kind of complain is very unusual, this ought not to happened, and if it really the thing then I would advise you to wait for few days to come it around, if this does not get alright then you have to see the dentist and have words for this, take care and have nice day.
