Q.
there is a very slight gap between my front teeth. My other teeth are okay so I do not want to get braces. What other treatment could I have to solve this indiscretion?

A.
The two options are: Cosmetic Bonding. This is the placement of a plastic tooth colored material in between the teeth to close the gap. This procedure is dependent on how large the gap is and whether it will alter the length and width proportions of the tooth. The other is placement of porcelain veneers on both teeth. There are advantages and disadvantages to both procedures. Consult with your dentist on what is best for you. Dr. Lemongello
