Answers:
Spacers do exactly what they say they do, they leave spaces once the braces are gone!. If you have no need to have spaces between your teeth, then the orthodontist won't have put in spacers!. It is also possible that he/she is just waiting until they are more necessary or until he has a better idea of what your mouth is going to do!. It is possible that you might get spacers, but if he didn't put them in to start, I don't think he will!. Don't worry about it, though the spacers aren't necessary and your teeth should be fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
if you have enough space between your molars, they won't put them on!. spacers just make room for the bands that hold up your braces!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
