Answers:

Have you had your wisdom teeth removed? If you clench your teeth at night that will make your teeth shift througout your life. If your teeth shift some in this time frame, you can put your retainer back in when you get it, and it might be tight at first, but it will move them back. The retainer will feel normal again the next time you wear it.
