Right incisior will not move

#1 Post by libertymarissa »

Hi, I'm new to the forum. I am scheduled to be fit for my retainer this week. Yay! I have noticed that my right upper incisor hasn't moved much in the last couple of weeks. This has me worried. I have already been put off once for my retainer fitting and am ready to be done with braces. Is there something my Dr. can do in office to move this one tooth? It's going to take 2 weeks for my retainer to come in and was wondering if there is a wire they can put on to move this one tooth? I am wearing my Seal bands 24-7. Is there something I can do other than wearing my bands to help speed up the movement? Thanks!
