She should go see her dentist and inquire about braces or a retainer. They will be able to pull the teeth closer to each other and straighten them. There is no guarantee that this will be cheap, but it is the best way to eliminate gaped teeth. You would not want to scimp on any sort of medical procedure though, because it could result in less than satisfactory results.

There is only one way and that is with comestic denistry which insurance will not pay for. There was a CNN female a few years back that had a small gap in front and she had it fixed, and it looked great. I don't know what she is doing now but she is no longer with CNN, as far as I know. I would try to get the uppers fixed at least.

The cheapest way is to go to an dentist who can refer you to a great orthodontist who will perform a procedure called bonding. They pretty much insert a piece of specialy formed plastic into the gap and sculpt it to look like part of the two teeth. It can cost anywhere from 500-750$. Much cheaper than braces.

You could always visit a dentist. They can fix it once you set an appointment with braces. They could put in a filling or use another technique. However, it is costly and can be irritating to your teeth for a while.

well, the best thing to do is braces. THere is also a product called invisialign. That works wonders and you don't even see it, BUT it IS more than going with clear braced. Seeing a ortho would be step 1 for you friend.

Personally, I think the best way to fix gapped teeth is to see a dentist and ask about visaline. I have a ffriend who has gapped teeth snd visaline works well for him.

Other than braces, they have something like brackets where they will take two teeth and put them together and over time they will be side by side. Im not sure exactly what it is, but it costs something like $100

Veneers run a couple thousand dollars, braces, about the same.

braces. she wouldn't have to get a full set, she might could get them just on the top, and possibly just on those teeth.
