Question about teeth movement after braces

I had my braces on from January 27, 2005 until Febuary 16, 2005.
I've had them off for a week now and it seems my teeth have already moved back into the same position they were before braces. Is it possible they moved that quick?

If you teeth have moved I would certainly call the Ortho to take a look. Do you have a retainer? Is it tight when you put it in?

According to this, you had braces on for a little over two weeks... your teeth wouldn't have moved at all in two weeks...

If your ortho told you to wear your retainers 24hrs...make sure you do it. They want to go back to their original position because of the roots have to have time to set up in their new location.
Call your ortho and get an appointment soon!!!!!
