Spk to orthodontist: If you are unhappy with your results, now is the time to discuss your concerns.. BEFORE appliances are removed. Ask why the space is still present and see if it can be corrected.

Orthodontist: discuss with your orthodontist-- they may have over corrected an issue on purpose, knowing that the teeth will move back. if you have concerns you should talk to them
