Question:
Is it ok to do this to my teeth?
I have a gap in my two front teeth but its not that big. One of my friends told me to use the small hair rubber bands and put them on my teeth. Will this work?
BTW my gap is about l l that big...lol thats the only way 2 describe it.
Answers:
No rubber bands are not good to use. They will end up tipping the teeth instead of moving them. Talk to a dentist or orthodontist about a retainer that could close the gap. Another option to close the gap is a dentist could bond composite. It actually requires removing tooth structure and making the gap bigger, but this gives enough room to put the filling in and then it looks good as new.
