Question Embouchure Problem?

I had braces on for a little while earlier this year and by this point, I have had braces off longer than I have had them on, so I have had time to get back into the swing of things. Before the braces, I was maxing out at high F above the staff. Now the last not I can hit without hurting myself is an A! I don't know what to make of it... I have been doing a lot of Arbans stuff that works my range but it doesn't seem to be going all that well... Another problem I have is when I start getting up higher my chest starts to hurt and I want to stop playing because it doesn't feel right. I have seen pictures of my old embouchure and my new one now and they are very different.. Thanks a ton in Advance!
