Having a single gap between your central incisors is called diastema. This situation occurs due to strong upper lip bridle (frenulum) attachment and its bigger size. Diastema can be covered with composite restoration or a couple of veneers placed. Schedule a visit to your dentist for more information.
Having gaps between your incisors and premolars is called tremas (tremae). This situation occurs due to your jaw structure and its bigger size or several molars missing continuously. Tremas can be covered with composite restorations or veneers that is more reasonable especially if you want to reshape your teeth. Although, you can try to have braces for more proper and natural result. This can help you tighten your teeth and make interdental gaps less visible. Schedule a visit to your dentist for more information.
Having smaller teeth relative to a jaw size can create certain misbalance. Such condition can be fixed with dental ceramic crowns and veneers. However, you can cover your teeth with composite restorations but ceramics may have more stable and lasting result. Schedule a visit to your dentist for more information.
