Any space between the front teeth will make
the smile irregular and can have profound effects on the face.
Space Closure will not only improve the self
image of the patient, but it will also allow people to look
at the face without being distracted by the irregularity in
the smile.
Spaces between the teeth can be corrected
with Bonding, Porcelain laminates, crowns, Bridges , Implants
or by Orthodontics.
There are several ways to close unsightly
gaps, depending on the cause of the space, its location and
the condition of the adjacent teeth.
Correcting space problems may involve any
one of the following:
• Repositioning of the teeth: This
is done using orthodontics or braces. This is the ideal treatment
for healthy teeth but it is time consuming as the treatment
time varies between 6 to 24 months.
• Restoring the teeth using bonding,
laminates or crowns provides immediate results
• Removal of the teeth if indicated
followed by replacement with implants or bridges.
