03 Jul Treatment Options to Close the Gap Between Teeth
The reason many people face having gaps between teeth is that their teeth are not large enough or they don’t have enough teeth to compensate for their jaw space. Perhaps permanent teeth were removed, or they never grew in correctly. Whatever the reason, there is a non-invasive dental treatment provided by your cosmetic dentist that can erase that unsightly gap in just a few visits. Porcelain veneers can correct many dental imperfections including the gaps between teeth.

There are other options to correct those gaps including orthodontics…the beauty of porcelain veneers is that there are no dental brackets and no long term commitment needed to create a new, stunning smile.
A porcelain veneer is a very thin, tooth colored shell that is used to cover dental problems. Porcelain veneers are appropriate for stained teeth, chipped teeth, uneven or worn down teeth…any dental imperfection can be corrected.
Dental veneers can correct one or several teeth. Your dentist will match the shape and shade of the surrounding teeth making this dental repair virtually undetectable. And because this procedure is minimally invasive, this treatment is preferred over more extensive options.
A very small amount of enamel will be removed from your tooth, about the thickness of the veneer, and dental impressions will be taken. The dental lab will fabricate your veneers to the specifications provided by your cosmetic dentist. On delivery day, the veneers will be “tried-on” and adjusted until you and your dentist are perfectly satisfied with the results. At the time, the veneers will be permanently cemented in place.
Whether you are dealing with one or more gaps between teeth or any dental imperfections, porcelain veneers might be your best option. You can get a smile makeover in a couple of brief visits to your dentist. This is an improvement that can last a lifetime!
