Why am I getting spaces between my teeth? Why is a tooth turning, when braces are supposed to be making things better?
There are times during treatment that, in some areas, teeth may seem to be getting worse rather than better. Usually this is due to the fact that in order to accomplish some corrections in one area, there may be temporary compromises elsewhere, until full control is established. This is a normal part of the process. Occasionally; elastic ties do break and can cause these same temporary events. If you’re in doubt, give us a call so we can advise you of what to expect or do.
