My left side of my teeth is higher than my right and my lower teeth curves a little higher. I’ve had braces for 4 years and my teeth is straight, and I’m close to get them off. However, Im not happy with my results and I want to get it fix. My ortho tells me to wear my elastics. Is this something braces can fix it or is it because my face is uneven. I see it especially when I take a picture of my teeth and i invert it.

White spots occur because plaque and bacteria has built up around braces : the enamel there has been weakened and the tooth is at risk for a cavity and infection.
1. use high fluoride toothpaste.
if that do not work
2. visit cosmetic dentist for tooth coloured filling/ veneer.
For that cephalometric analysis [skull frontal asymmetry analysis] is must to identify the cause, basis on that one can guide you. Visit orthodontist or maxillofacial surgeon.
First, why are your teeth so much proclined after braces treatment?
You are ideally all four premolar extraction case.
As not all your teeth are visible, so tell me any extractions done during your braces treatment?
After this, I can guide you for treatment and retention.
