I have a clear retainer for my upper part of my mouth, and a wire retainer for the teeth on the lower part of my mouth, I haven't worn them in a year and there's a slight pinch in one of my front two teeth, I've noticed it's very slightly longer than the other front tooth, would it be okay if I wore my retainers again? They go on a little more than half way

Hello,An Orthodontist will usually work together with a speech pathologist. You might have both going on. You need the teeth in the right place and them do exercises with your tongue to retrain movement and positioning. Make an appointment with an Orthodontist for an evaluation...
Never heard of such a thing!All I can think of is that your doctor is one who doesn't think anyone should ever have teeth extracted so he/she can't figure out how to align all of your teeth into your small mouth. Small mouths and big teeth sometimes means extractions....but braces will work even...
