Gaps between molars where spacers used to be

If you have finished with your orthodontic treatment and are wearing retainers (or will be soon), this is a special place to connect with others in your (enviable) situation. Ask a question or make a comment about life post-braces.

Gaps between molars where spacers used to be

#1 Post by pantlover »

just got my braces off today (!!!) and my ortho said that i would be getting the clear retainers next week. however, a couple hours after leaving the office, i had my first meal and while flossing after, i noticed i still had those gaps between my molars where the spacers were placed in the beginning of my treatment. will these close over time? or will my retainer basically maintain those gaps too? thank you!
