My retainer isn't keeping my teeth straight?

Asked by comicalmayhem (809points) August 20th, 2011

And the ortho doesn’t open until Monday. Its created a small gap and one of my front teeth are appearing longer than the other. I think they’re becoming crooked too. The metal part of the retainer is slanted with the metal on the left side not fitting in between 2 teeth while on the right side, it fits. What should I do?

Also, I’m not sure if it’s just bad wisdom teeth, but the teeth at the top in the back (most likely wisdom teeth) are angled about 45 degrees outwards while my wisdom teeth on the bottom are fine.
