Essex retainers can be used to make minor adjustments to teeth. If the gap is not very large then yes, the retainer will close it.

Hi ranita!
The same thing happened to me. Small gaps were starting to re-open during the week I had to wait for my retainer. Once the retainer was in my mouth, the gaps started to close in a few hours.
It is totally normal for this to happen.
Hope this helps!

My ortho left my braces on until my retainers were ready.
