I had orthodontic treatment 5 years ago, and now my teeth have shifted back a bit, so I sleep with a retainer in. Compared to before I did it, my teeth became more evenly aligned, but the fact that I have to manage them for life is stressful. Now I only wear the retainer when I sleep, and usually only the upper teeth are fixed with a wire behind the teeth. There’s also a chance they’ll shift back, so unless it’s very serious, I don’t recommend orthodontic treatment
