After doing orthodontic treatment for 2 and a half years, ever since I started wearing rubber bands my face became asymmetrical, my cheeks sagged, my nasolabial folds got so deep, and my philtrum got longer, so I said I wanted to stop partway through and take them out, but they said I still need retainers. I want to go back to how I looked before wearing the rubber bands, but my gums have already moved downward ㄷㄷ For now I’ve been wearing only the metal for 5 months, but
Should I take them out and get retainers?
Or should I just not wear retainers and remove everything?
My face is so stressful ㅜㅜ I don’t even have any strength in the philtrum area, so it’s drooping. If I remove them, won’t it go back?
My teeth were all pretty straight. I got orthodontic treatment because my upper gums protruded and I didn’t know anything about it. I didn’t have any extractions. If I take them out, can I go back? ㅜㅜ I even feel it’s a waste to spend money on retainers now. Every day I just look in the mirror and regret it ㅜㅜ
