I Want To Know What I Should Do Next, Regarding The Gaps In My Teeth?

Q.

Hi, Dr Mark
I recently closed my 3.5mm front teeth gap with Orthofill band. But now I have gap in each side and am still wearing the band to close the two sides but I know it will create another gap again, so I was wondering what would be the best treatment for me to keep the front teeth closed as well as closing the side gaps. I’ve also heard that bonding can be good but I wasn’t sure if it’s the right treatment for me. Two years ago I paid for Inman braces which I ended up not wearing because I wasn’t aware it was 3D until I received the braces. The dentist didn’t show me the sample at the time so that was a complete waist of money.
The Orthofill band was my last option before I considered doing Invisalign but gladly the band did work but now am stuck as to what the next step should be to finish of the process.
Thank you so much for your time.

Q.

Would you recommend orthofill bands on diastema ? If not what type of braces would be best ? I have general spacing between the front six upper teeth. (all the gaps are around three mm’s apart) .My teeth is also pretty straight on the top and the bottom .Would I need to have braces on my lower ones,if though they do not need it( as I have herd that if you cause movement on your top,you will need to adjust the bottom too).
Thank you !
