Front teeth bonded to close a gap. Any suggestions?

Question

The bond lasts for a while and eventually needs to be redone. Each time it is rebonded my teeth are moved apart very slightly. To have a permanent solution, I will need to get the bonding material off (how long does that take) braces need to bring them together and then two wires will fasten the two front teeth together. Can I do fast braces for this procedure, it seems like it would be more cost effective? BTW I am 63 yrs young.

Sorry to hear that the bonding is not working for your teeth. It is possible for the bonding to be removed and orthodontic movement can close the gaps. However to answer your question completely it ultimately depends on what the condition of the other teeth are like, if they need any movements, or gaps closed, etc. If only the front space is an issue generally in a few short weeks fast braces can close that gap, however it is difficult to judge without pictures or a proper examination. Feel free to discuss with a qualified provider in your area.All the best,
