Gap between the teeth. Treatment options? Need information on the safety of teeth bands
Patient: Hi doctor, I am a 23 yrs. old girl. I have wide gaps in my 4 front teeth of the upper jaw and small gaps in the teeth of the lower jaw. Kindly suggest me if I can opt for invisible braces to close my gaps and what s the estimated duration and cost for the same. Also let me know if teeth bands are safe enough to close the teeth gaps. Doctor: Hello Welcome to HCM I would like to tell you that duration of orthodontic treatment depends on the case & the age of patient.The correct time of treatment is teenage period because that time we get good results as that time bone is growing & tooth alignment is easy. Still it takes around 6 months to 2 years depending on the case.For further treatment you need to consult your orthodontist for proper diagnosis & treatment planing.  Take Care Regards Dr.Neha
