Understanding Gapped Teeth

Gapped teeth, or diastema, refer to noticeable spaces between two or more teeth. While some may embrace these gaps as unique features, others may wish to close them for aesthetic reasons or to improve oral health. At South Gate Dental Clinic, we provide personalized solutions to address gapped teeth, utilizing the latest techniques in cosmetic and orthodontic dentistry.

Causes of Gapped Teeth

Genetics: Natural growth and genetic predisposition can lead to spacing issues.
Habits: Actions like thumb sucking in childhood can cause gaps to develop.
Gum Disease: Advanced gum disease can lead to tooth and bone loss, creating spaces.
Mismatched Jawbone and Tooth Size: Disproportion between the size of the jawbone and the teeth can result in extra space.

Our Gapped Teeth Treatments

Orthodontics: Braces and clear aligners effectively close gaps by gradually moving teeth into their optimal positions.
Dental Veneers: Porcelain veneers can reshape the teeth and close gaps, offering a cosmetic solution with a natural look.
Dental Bonding: A quick and cost-effective option where resin is applied to teeth to fill gaps and improve the smile's appearance.
