UNCLEAR: I cannot respond well, as i think you did not fully express what your are wondering about. What i can say is: your tongue position will adapt to your aligned teeth and be of no concern at all (if it was not a problem before). Good luck! re-submit your question with more detail and i would be happy to help.

Just Fine: I presume u mean u had premolars removed for braces? If so the ortho is probably intending on pulling ur upper front teeth back to close the spaces. If this is so, u have to be v. Careful! since the lower teeth have to fit behind/inside the uppers, over-retracting the uppers can cause TMJ problems by forcing the lower jaw too far posterior lay. If ur jaw starts popping, the upper frnt tth r 2 far.
