I got some ipr on my lateral incisors because they were pretty wide. Well that left little gaps on both sides. They put a power chain on and the left side closed immediately but I've now had a power chain 4 times in a row (so 24 weeks) and the right side hasn't closed. Am I right in assuming that if the power chain hasn't done the job yet that it won't? What else can be done??

This is a question for your ortho; certainly things exist that can close gaps besides powerchains, (full elastics, springs, etc.) but only your ortho can tell you which (if any) are appropriate for your case.
