Gap between teeth in upper jaw

2017-08-04 18:56:28
I see that the gap between the teeth in upper jaw is increasing although it is small now. Also,my upper jaw is little front. I had used braces 6 years ago and now I am having little problem with upper jaw teeth gap and teeth a little front. So I would like to know if plastic retainer would cure my problem along with cost and total months to use it.
