Permanent solution is to close the gaps with the help of braces.
Till then use the mouthwash to flush out the accumulated food.

Hi,
You need to get OPG X-ray done to determine the cause for the gap according to which it can be permanently treated.
Meanwhile you can rinse your mouth with Clohex mouth wash every day.
For further treatment you can consult us online/ phone call for free through practo or visit us. All our doctors are vaccinated and follow covid protocol.
