See Orthodontist: You may need slight adjustment. Assuming you were treated by qualified Orthodontic Specialist, this may be a very simple "fix." Call now, and make sure you are wearing retainers EXACTLY as directed.

No: It won't affect your speech but it sounds like your teeth are shifting. Be sure to wear your retainers as much as possible every day.
