Removing braces after a month.?!
Question:
Removing braces after a month.?
If I remove my braces after a month, what would the result of my teeth be afterwards? Would they go back to normal or shift like crazy?
Please don't ask why I want them off after a month or tell me that it's a stupid thing to do.

Okay...Dental Hygienist here. Your teeth will probably just move back to the position they were in before braces (If they've moved much at all). I wouldn't say they would go back to "normal" because if they had been normal you probably wouldn't have had braces to begin with. The orthodontic process has to do with pressure moving the teeth through the bone. So...bone breaks down ahead of the pressure and builds up behind the pressure. I guess there may be a chance you could have some kind of weird shifting because of unstable bone but I wouldn't worry about it. Just ask the orthodontist, he knows your situation.
