Dental spacers can be removed once the teeth for which the dental spacers were placed have sufficiently erupted into the spaces provided by the spacers. Your dentist or orthodontist can tell you if this has occurred.

How long do spacers stay on?

DO NOT WORRY AT ALL!! spacers only stay on for 3-4 days, then come the braces. for some people spacers stay on for 1 week, depending on your dental situation...i recommend some pain relievers because the day after your spacers, it will hurt like hell!! it can also last up to 2 weeks..but that is only if your teeth are extremely crammed together.....GOOD LUCK! And once again its USUALLY ONLY A FEW DAYS!!

Can you use a water pick with spacers in?

Yes, you can use a water pick (water flosser) with spacers in place. It's effective for cleaning around dental braces and spacers, as the pulsating water can help remove food particles and plaque from hard-to-reach areas.

Always consult your orthodontist for personalized advice on maintaining oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment.
