Supervised neglect: Assume it was baby teeth that were removed, and permanent teeth that have not erupted. and are most probably impacted. Your daughter is years overdue to see a fully qualified Orthodontic Specialist. The longer you delay, the more complex treatment becomes. Instead of waiting for a miracle to occur, ask your Dentist to do what should have been done at age 7, refer your child to an Orthodontist.
