How Long Does It Take For A Braces “chain” To Move Teeth To Fill About A 1/8” Gab?

I am waiting to get my braces off, and all I am waiting for is a little gab between two teeth to fill, I would say its about 1/8 of an inch. I’ve had a chain on for four weeks, but I really have seen no movement. Is this normal?

  1. its normal, your teeth wouldn’t move that fast, remember your teeth are bones, they are hard. it will move slowly, a year. at least, would do.
    i know its kinda hard having braces, remember no pain no gain!!!


  2. I have a chain too do you have to wear elastics also ?!
    if you do wear them or you’ll hav to wear your braces longer
    and it will move slower !
    my teeth have moved alot since i got my braces on
    ( 7 months ) i think i’ll get them off sooner than i’m supposed to :) !i’m supposed to wear them for a year and a half but i think it’ll only be a year !


  3. Only a dentist could effectively give you an answer to this….so call one or get it checked out!
