I had Invisalign done 8-9 years ago. I wore the retainers for a long time. However now I have two teeth that have regressed to their old spot. And it's a little badd to just use the old retainers. What should I do? My old ortho lives far away but should I see if I can reorder the old trays and redo some of them? Or do I have to do the express with a new ortho. Looking for help with the easiest cheapest option. Thanks

Once the initial movement begins (fist 2 aligners) you should be able to achieve 99% of movements in 5 days after propel MOPS are performed. Many of my clear aligner cases are even reduced to changing aligners every 3-5 days following Propel treatment.
One clear aligner will only keep your teeth from getting any worse. You may need a short treatment with Invisalign or something similar to actually change them back to where they were when the braces came off. I would suggest going back to your orthodontist, or another orthodontic specialist if...
