like a week ago i went into consultation with m orthodontist , he said i needed braces, i got impressions, measurements and photographs of my teeth and i was scheduled an appointment in 2 weeks for braces placement, but i was wondering why i didnt get spacers? no oneee not even the dr. mentioned spacers its not even in the info packet and yes my back teeth re really close i dont have a gap or anything.
Im getting braces but why didnt i get spacers?
your orthodontist is probably not stupid and knows you don't have to have them. if you got the right braces no one needs them
Reply:maybe your teeth aren't that close together as you think they are. if you can slip dental floss in between your back teeth okay, then that's maybe enough room. it doesn't necessarily have to have a GAP. just enough room for your molar bands.
Reply:Maybe you dont need them
Reply:It's good that you don't need them!!
The reason that some orthodonsists use them is because they put a band all the way around your back molar. However, alot of orthodontists have stopped doing this and don't have any bands that go all the way around your back teeth thus removing the need for spacers.
Reply:Lucky! I thought the spaces were worse than getting my braces.
I'm guessing your orthodontist thought there was enough space around your molars for your bands. My teeth are so tight getting floss in between them is a struggle
