What is the Best Way to Close Spaces Between Teeth?

There are several excellent ways to use cosmetic dentistry to close spaces between teeth. Each case is different.  Generally speaking,  the three basic ways are:

1)    Dental Bonding

2)    Porcelain Veneers

3)    Orthodontic Treatment (possibly with Invisalign)

Dental Bonding works very nicely for small spaces and is very conservative.  I often use this if the patient likes the color and size of their teeth and only wants the spaces closed.  If a patient is not happy with the shade of their teeth and bleaching does not work well, then porcelain veneers may be a better choice.  With veneers we can dramatically  improve smiles and make beautiful changes.  Sometimes orthodontics or braces can be an option, however, not all cases can work with this.

In overview, you are considering some form of cosmetic dentistry to close spaces, these are options that your dentist should discuss with you.  The beauty of keeping up with dental technology is that I can offer choices for our patients.
