Please don't fall into the gadget trap. Your malocclusion has to be evaluated by a specialist Orthodontist to determine 1) What's wrong, 2) How did it get that way, 3) Would you be best served by an Orthodontic or a Restorative solution, 4) Will other specialists be required in the best overall treatment plan, and finally, 5) What medicine (appliance) will best support the treatment plan.

The malocclusion of deep bite must be addressed. Root resorption probably ruled out the possibility of Orthodontic therapy (including invisalign) the second time. Rotation cannot be treated by retainer. Occlusal adjustments to the opposing teeth (lower anterior) will definitely help relieve your pain and mobility. Raising posterior teeth heights with crowns will reduce the overbite/deep bite.
