I had four teeth extracted. After finishing orthodontic treatment, my protruding mouth improved too, so I thought it was okay, but as time passed, one day my mother said my mouth shape looked like a sunken, toothless mouth, so I looked closely.. When I talk or smile, because of the force going into my upper lip, my teeth were gradually being pushed backward... lol My retainer also has extra space around the front teeth now. It's loose It makes me wonder if my gums were so weak that my teeth could move like this from upper-lip force.. My molars also hurt after eating tough meat But as my gums got weaker, I feel like facial aging came faster too... Anyway, orthodontic treatment ultimately moves bone, after all. As the bone weakened, I feel like the skin attached to the bone also lost elasticity For me, orthodontic treatment was something where I lost far too much...
