Answer: Money back from Invisalign
When you have orthodontic treatment your relationship is with the orthodontist, not the manufacturer of the appliances used.
If you are unhappy with treatment, either fixed braces or removable Invisalign, discuss the situation with the orthodontist. If the orthodontist is ethical, he will try to correct the problem either through re-treatment or refund. Also, he may tell you that your result is the best that can be done in your particular situation, and therefor no refund or retreatment is due. Your discussion with the orthodontist will be the same, no matter what type of appliances were used.

Answer: Teeth Relapsing after Invisalign
I would suggest that you contact your dentist to have him take a look. You may want to consider having Invisalign treatment again. All you may need is Invisalign Express which can take six months or less to finish your treatment. Since the removable retainers don’t seem to be working for you, I would consider having the dentist make you fixed retainers that would always stay in your mouth to keep your teeth from shifting. Good Luck!
