A Common Concern, Several Excellent Solutions
A gap between the teeth, especially the front teeth, is a common cosmetic concern. The great news is that you have several excellent options to correct it. At Veda Family Dentistry, we can help you choose the best path forward based on your budget, timeline, and goals. Let's compare three popular solutions.
Immediate Cosmetic Solutions: Veneers and Bonding
For a fast, cosmetic solution, we often look at porcelain veneers or dental bonding. Dental bonding is a one-visit procedure where a tooth-colored resin is sculpted onto the teeth to close the gap. It is affordable but may stain over time. Porcelain veneers are thin shells of durable ceramic bonded to the front of the teeth. They are a more premium, long-lasting solution that resists staining and can also change the tooth's shape and color.
The Orthodontic Solution: Invisalign Clear Aligners
For a solution that physically moves your teeth to close the gap, Invisalign is the ideal choice. This orthodontic treatment uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their proper position. While this process takes longer, it is a structural solution that corrects the underlying alignment of your bite without altering the teeth themselves.
