I had four teeth extracted because my jaw was narrow.
At some point, I became really concerned about my upper teeth crowding forward... When I artificially bite down to bring the upper and lower teeth together, they align, but when I look at the side view in an X-ray, the condition of the upper teeth is...ใ ใ
And I also feel that the inner molars have become misaligned again. (In the last photo, it looks slightly raised upward)

So, should I readjust it or not? I'm ๊ณ ๋ฏผ์ด ๋ผ์.
The cost and time are issues, but more than that... it's the health of my teeth and gums. I feel that my gums have already become somewhat weakened due to orthodontics, and I'm worried that undergoing orthodontic treatment again might be too much.

According to what I was told at the dentist before, my teeth are in a reclined position, so there are many gaps between my teeth.
And since it was a case of orthodontic treatment after becoming an adult, it was said that the teeth wouldn't change to a perfectly aligned bite.
Perhaps because of that, my orthodontic treatment ended with my teeth not perfectly aligned at 100%, and I was told this was the best possible outcome... but I feel like they are gradually shifting more and more. I know that orthodontic results don't last a lifetime once treatment is finished, but it still feels upsetting.ใ

I'm curious about your opinions. I'm considering whether to do re-orthodontics or not, and if so, whether to do it entirely or partially.
