There sure is, go to your orthodontist and they can make you a retainer, but go soon before more shifting occurs.
Good luck!

When the orthodontist removed my braces, he attached a permanent wire retainer on the inside of the lower front teeth. This, along with my regular retainer that I wear at night, has caused my teeth to be as straight as they day the braces were removed. I've had the permanent retainer about six years and will probably wear it until I croak.

You could try a spring retainer if they're not way out of position. A small spring in the retainer will push the troublesome tooth or teeth back into position.

it depends on how far your lower teeth shifted. ask your regular dentist what he thinks or get back to your orthodontist ASAP
