Would spring hawley retainer be able to close this gap as it very minor movement

Q. Hi, I had braces about 5 years ago and have started to notice a very small gap (0.5mm) forming between my 2 front upper teeth. All my other teeth are fine. I have heard a spring hawley retainer would be able to close this gap as its a very minor movement. could you please clarify this and also the cost of this retainer? many thanks.

A. Yes this could be used if you have enough room in your bite to push the teeth back. We charge around £400 for these appliances.
