The procedure you choose would depend on how much you’re willing to spend, over what period of time you would want it to work and, of course, the severity and size of the gap. Some examples of ways to remove a diastema, a space or gap between two teeth, are as follows:
BRACES
This seems to be the most well-known of all the procedures. This actually involves the bone shape of the mouth, and no matter where the diastema is found, a full-mouth brace is required because all the teeth can shift under the pressure.
There are now Invisalign braces that can be used in less severe cases. A major benefit is the fact that most insurance companies cover the costs of having braces and with all the latest procedures, the pain is reduced.
DENTAL IMPLANTS
An implant is either a fixed or a removable replacement tooth that fits into the gap. This is usually best when the diastema is a full tooth wide. The replacement tooth will be inserted into the gum or bone, and sometimes attached to the surrounding teeth. Dental implants procedure has an extremely high success rate of 98% and is known for its long-lasting benefits. It is, however, slightly more costly than other options.
DENTAL BONDING
This is the 'quick-fix' option. It involves the application of resin to teeth and after a few hours, the resin dries and makes the teeth look as good as new – sometimes even better. It is mainly used for chipped or broken teeth but it can be used to fill a diastema too. It is one of the cheapest options, but it is not the most long-lasting.
CROWNS AND VENEERS
They are very similar and they aim to do the same thing. However, the entire purpose of a crown is to fix the damage done in your mouth. It is a porcelain shell that fits over most of the tooth, unlike the veneers which are just bonded to the front of the tooth, and therefore can fix more issues. Porcelain veneers and crowns are slightly more expensive and take longer than the dental bonding but as a result they last much longer and look very natural.
Now are you convinced that there is more than one way to fix a gap in your teeth? If the idea of braces traumatises you, then there are other ways that the diastema can be fixed. It doesn’t have to take years, and it doesn’t even have to be noticeable. If you would prefer not to be like those models and celebrities making a statement, no need to worry – there are plenty of painless, long lasting procedures that will do away with your gap in no time.
Procedure for Teeth Gap Treatment
At Dental Cure India, we offer a comprehensive and personalized approach to treat gaps between teeth. Here’s an overview of the procedure:
- Initial Consultation: During your first visit, our orthodontist will examine your teeth, discuss your concerns, and take X-rays or impressions if needed. This helps in diagnosing the extent of the gaps and planning the appropriate treatment.
- Treatment Plan: Based on the examination, our orthodontist will recommend the best treatment options for closing the gaps. This could include braces, clear aligners, dental bonding, veneers, crowns, or bridges.
-
Orthodontic Braces/Clear Aligners:
- Braces: Metal or ceramic braces are attached to the teeth with brackets and wires. Adjustments are made periodically to gradually move the teeth into the desired position.
- Clear Aligners: A series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners are provided. These aligners are worn over the teeth and changed every few weeks to shift the teeth gradually.
- Dental Bonding: A tooth-colored resin is applied to the teeth, shaped to close the gaps, and then hardened with a special light. This procedure is quick and painless, usually completed in one visit.
- Veneers: Thin shells of porcelain or composite are custom-made and bonded to the front of the teeth. This requires two visits – one for tooth preparation and impressions, and the second for bonding the veneers.
- Dental Crowns: Crowns are placed over prepared teeth, covering them entirely to close gaps. This typically requires two visits – one for tooth preparation and impressions, and the second for fitting the crowns.
- Dental Bridges: A bridge consists of crowns on either side of a gap with a false tooth in between. This requires two visits – one for preparation and impressions, and the second for fitting the bridge.
- Follow-Up Visits: Regular follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor the progress of the treatment and make any necessary adjustments.
- Aftercare: Our orthodontist will provide detailed aftercare instructions to maintain the results. This includes good oral hygiene practices and regular dental check-ups.
