The gap between your two front teeth may remain while using an expander and braces, but it typically starts to close as treatment progresses. The duration can vary depending on individual factors such as the severity of the spacing and how well your teeth respond to treatment. Generally, you might expect the gap to begin closing within a few months, but complete closure can take longer, often around 6 months to a year. Regular adjustments and following your orthodontist's instructions will help achieve the best results.
