Yes you can, but the bands used for orthodontic work are both thinner and stonger to provide the necessary tension.

*You should consult with your dentist or orthodontist before making any changes to your teeth spacing, as this can affect your bite and the adjacent teeth.

Is there a way to close a gap between an adult's teeth without braces and how long does it take?

I was looking for some cheap and invisible way to close my teeth gap. I found out that Teeth effect bands are the quickest and cheapest way to close teeth gap and they are clear bands. I am 35 and I had big gap between my front teeth. I used teeth effect bands from www.oralband.com for $19.99 and it closed my teeth gap in my front teeth in less than 1 month. You can either use: 1- Bonding (white fillings) which take only one appointement 2- Porcelain veneers which take two appointements. 3- Invisible orthodontistry (Invisalign) which takes at least a year for a full mouth straightening of your teeth. Yes, teeth effect bands from teethgap.com can be used to close your gap without going to the dentist. That "teeth effects" stuff sounds like a gimmick. I doubt if it will be able to close teeth gaps. I went to their website and it doesn't look like it can be trusted. They don't even have a phone number. Actually, the teeth gap is not a gimmick and it does work. I had a kind-of small gap and I used the bands. After three weeks, the gap was almost completely gone. I HIGHLY recommend this. I've used the teeth makeover bands, and they worked for me *shrugs* Worth a try. They're cheaper than teeth effect bands and their site is more professional. Invisalign takes about 4 months and it is Cheap around $20
