Mini screw implant for closing teeth gap

2018-01-04 15:23:03
It's about 3 mm Gap and 4 days ago I had mini screw implant for closing that gap. My dentist applied force there by implant but still I do not see any teeth movement towards closing gap. Does this implant really works or do I have tough gum tissue at that location ??
