Patients can choose orthodontic treatment to correct their teeth. Gapped teeth are often caused by misalignment, and orthodontic therapy can adjust the position of teeth, reducing the size of gaps and achieving an aesthetically pleasing result. Alternatively, dental gap filling is also an option. By using filling materials to close the gaps, the tooth surface becomes smoother and the width of the gaps is reduced. Additionally, patients may opt for dental veneers. Dental veneers are thin ceramic shells that are bonded to the tooth surface, altering the shape and color of the teeth, effectively concealing gaps and enhancing appearance.
