[@faisaahmxd6843]

My gap is starting to vanish, but my gum is kinda mashed behind my teeth and it hurts. What should I do?

Talk to your orthodontist

[@Sariine436]

Please reply back. Did they give you 4 teeth extractions?! They gave me 4 teeth extractions and my teethe from the end are going inward im in so much pain and he gave me *tmj* I told him my tongue is not fitting with my mouth and that breathing got harder he said he couldn't fix the problem and he was the one who caused it.

[@emmar5458]

That happened to me as well. I wasn’t really able to talk to my orthodontist, but it eventually went away on it’s own.

Hi I have a question ever since I put Braces my smile looks awkward in the sense that I show more teeth on my right side and it makes my cheek move upwards compared to my left side so my smile is totally unsymmetrical.What could be the issue?

[@carlallenlayugan8005]

You could've asked that question to your doctor.

I have a gap between my two front teeth and they are both a little wanky do I need braces and how long would it take for my teeth to be normal

[@Zenab-hs1ky]

If it’s only the gap in your front teeth that’s the problem then I’m saying 6-12months

[@whossgiioo]

@@Zenab-hs1ky Ok I have an overbite aswell

[@theboialex7111]

@@whossgiioo that should take 2 more months

[@nesramirez9592]

From a similar perspective I have a gap in my teeth, and it’s going to take 18 months I don’t think itd be less than a year

[@Luna-if7jw]

I already have an appointment to remove mine and i still have a gap between my front tooth and the one beside it. I’m really panicking because i don’t want to wait longer but also don’t want a gap when they’re off😭.

Can gaps be closed without powerchains? I got braces with the wire but my dentist hasn't used a powerchain

[@Jocy319]

Same!

[@imtired5401]

I think they’ll add the powerchain once ur braces journey is coming to an end. Like during its last couple of months I believe

[@shumailamallah4583]

Aapki gaps close hui without powerchain k??

Why do gaps come back after ortho removed power chains.

[@larkinoutdoors3284]

Hello I have gaps in every tooth and I was wondering how long would I need braces for and I also have a big overbite? Any suggestions

[@HasnainAli-hm1pc]

Maybe like 2 and half years it varies

[@michelledaniels5274]

Hi, i have two questions 1.) How long do you think it would take to close a gap about 3mm wide?( i have a gappy teeth and that's the biggest one) and secondly do orthodontics give power chains if a gap is moving slowly (so not much improvement) or is it a requirement??

[@quastorthodontics9758]

Hey Goldanaz! Sorry for the delayed response. Teeth can move approximately 1mm a month. So I would say 3 months for you. Thanks!!

[@ritikadwiz3719]

Is extraction of tooth is needed for braces in case of gap between front teeth

[@funfacts1354]

Hi..I've had my braces for over a year. They took out my top and lower pre molars..the bottom spaces are closed but the top ones..my canines stared being pulled backwards towards my molars and the top teeth still have gaps..question is ..why are my canines being pulled back and how will they close the gaps if idk have enough teeth to close them lol

[@luciemeblay7661]

Hey I have a question I have a gap but I don't wanna close it is it possible to seperate the braces

[@PD.EDITSS]

User I have a gap between my left maxillary lateral incisor and left maxillary canine whereas all other teeth are aligned without the gaps . I am thinking to apply a powercahin , which teeth should the power chain involve , the whole maxillary teeth or just a few ?

[@shaniac22]

Can you get powerchains on the first visit?

[@chinuyeop5285]

No

[@food_to_you620]

I have one question...my teeth has a little gap Between them but after breces should i have to joint a new artificial teeth for that gap ?? And if not then where😂 the gap will go????

[@shirushirley6747]

I have gap in my front teeth my dentist told me to use braces for 6 mnths I don't have overbite teeth will my braces cause me underbite?

[@razorstfn1373]

Heyyy one question,I had my braces for about 8 months and 10 days and my gap isn’t getting smaller it’s the same I think but the doctor said to be patient I gotta have braces for about 2 through 3 years how long think it’s gonna take for my gap to close??

[@razorstfn1373]

Only the sides is getting better I believe!

[@lalablake825]

Update? I just got braces did yours close yet

[@pariss04]

I think they work on alignment first and then they work on gap closing

[@vanessanoel9973]

Hey did it close ?

[@Loll2929]

I have gaps literally on all my front and bottom teeth

[@Loll2929]

But my teeth are straight they just have gaps..

[@supriyarudrapaul8005]

Me also did you get braces?

[@brysonbates2897]

I have a gap why didn’t they just give me a power chain i just got them today. Why did they give me regular rubber bands

[@aminata7275]

I think it's normal maybe they wait for the gap to get smaller.

[@xxo8888]

I have gappy bottom incisors with a crooked bite. How long would I have to wear braces?

[@quastorthodontics9758]

Kay X it is hard to say. Crooked bites can be corrected by either wearing rubber bands or in extreme cases jaw surgery. I would ask your orthodontist what can be done. It is really had to say without actually seeing your mouth. Keep in mind correcting teeth is like hitting a moving target. Hope this helps:)

[@sanjalina6728]

I have gap in between my front teeth I don't have a overbite will braces cause me underbite? I'm scared😭

[@satwindersingh819]

My dentist did nt put power chain on my front teeth and in it has been two months since i working with braces should i told him to put power chain or he will do himself after few months

[@shailacastillo927]

I have braces as well and i have a gap too the best thing to do is have patience I’ve had them for about 5 months and I’m getting my powerchain in 2 weeks (so your orthodontist wants to straighten everything out before putting a powerchain because then that can cause crowding and overbites and stuff)

If u got a gap between one of your teeths then you need them I believe but if u dont your good and u do not need power chains!
