Medical Conditions - Space Closure

Space closure is a process in orthodontic treatment that involves closing gaps or spaces between teeth. This is achieved through braces or aligners that gradually shift the teeth into the correct position. The time required for space closure varies depending on the severity of the gaps and the specific treatment plan. Once the spaces have been closed, patients will typically wear a retainer to maintain the alignment of their teeth.
