Gap Between Teeth, Wearing Braces. Have An Infection. What Can Be Done About It?
My two top teeth have a small gap between them. I'm still wearing my braces, i'm removing them in a few days.
I've been wearing braces for more then 2 years now. My dentist says its an infection? I have no idea how it might be an infection. My two middle-top teeth seem to have a gap separating them on top, but they're connected at the bottom.

Hi,
it seems that you might be having irregular teeth pattern giving rise to this picture.
Having small gap between teeth is common.
Two upper top teeth are separating on top is due to irregular growth of tooth.
Go for treatment if infection is there.
Consult dentist and get examined.
Ok and take care.
