After my correction, I can't bite my upper and lower teeth when I wear the traditional steel wire retainer. Is this normal? Or is the doctor's instrument not good?

If the retainer is to be an inclined plane or a plane guide rail, then this situation you mentioned is completely normal. Besides, the retainer is not a removable denture, nor is it used to bite. Hot things will deform, so you must take them off when eating. It really doesn't matter whether the teeth can be bitten or not. If you don't feel at ease, ask your doctor next time you see a doctor.
