How Can I Close my Gap and How Long Will It Take?

May 18, 2012
Asked By:RSMember1502 in london

Hi I've always had a gap between my teeth as I have oversized gums, but had braces for two years which corrected all this. However, despite wearing my retainer my gap between my two front teeth came back about 2 weeks after removing my braces. I didn't mind at first but it keeps getting bigger and I don't like it anymore! How can I fix it and how long will it take? I think maybe the skin between my teeth would need to be cut but I'm very weary about needles, cutting and pain... other ways?
