Is there another way to retrieve text messages.
Are you saying that you do not have iOS 16 installed on your phone? That is by far the best way to retrieve deleted messages.
Otherwise, you probably will not be able to recover the messages. For example, let's say that you were backing up your phone every day. When you delete a message, the next backup will pick up that action and delete the message from the backup, so the common advice you might hear to "check your backups" will be of no help.

There is information about recovering recently-deleted text messages above.
If the messages were deleted more than a month ago, the text messages are deleted.
This depends upon the device model that you have and the iOS version on it. See the pic below
