What is the best method to close my front tooth gap? I do not want to use bracelets by the way.?

Answer 1

Well, bracelets wouldn't work too well anyway as they are made to wear on your arm or ankle. Braces on the other hand are probably the best option. Contact an orthodontist and go in for a consultation. You should be able to find one thats has the first consultation free. He will examine your teeth then tell you what he would need to do, how much it will cost, etc.

Answer 2

If you don't want braces, you can ask a dentist to try and fill in the gap by making your front teeth a little wider. Depending on how big the gap is in the first place, it could cover up all or at least most of the gap.

You may also want to try invisalign which are just like braces but they are removable and invisible when you put them on.

Answer 3

Depending on how young you are, you may not have to get braces. When your wisdom teeth grow in, they will push your teeth forward, closing any gaps that you may have. This is not definate though. Go to your orthodontist and see if this is a possibility. You may also want to consider porcelin vaneers. They are fake teeth that go over your real teeth (after they file your real teeth down and cover them with the vaneers). I know that you said that you don't want braces, but they have options other than metal braces for people. They have these ones called Invisalign that are mouth pieces that you wear and they give you a whole bunch of sets to gradually straighten your teeth out. This may be kind of expensive, but you don't have to worry about metal braces, you can take them out to eat and to sleep, and people will not notice them while you wear them because they are clear and form to your teeth.

Good luck with your orthodontia!

Answer 4

Go to the denist and find out if the gap is caused by the muscle between your teeth. If so get it snipped. Then they might naturally move closed especially if you still don't have your wisdom teeth.

COMPOSITE VENEERS (Most evasive procedure)
What Is It?
Bonding uses a tooth-colored composite resin (plastic) to repair a decayed, chipped, fractured or discolored tooth. Bonding can be done in a single visit, unlike veneers, which are manufactured in a laboratory and require a customized mold to achieve a proper fit. The procedure is called bonding because the material bonds to the tooth.

What It's Used For
Bonding is among the easiest and least expensive of cosmetic dental procedures. The composite resin used in bonding can be shaped and polished to match the surrounding teeth. Most often, bonding is used for cosmetic purposes to improve the appearance of a discolored or chipped tooth. It also can be used to close spaces between teeth, to make teeth look longer or to change the shape or color of teeth.
Sometimes, bonding also is used as a cosmetic alternative to amalgam fillings, or to protect a portion of the tooth's root that has been exposed when gums recede.

Preparation
Little or no preparation usually is needed for bonding. Anesthesia often is not necessary, unless the bonding is being used to fill a decayed tooth.

How It's Done
Your dentist will use a shade guide to select the composite resin color that will match the color of the tooth most closely.
Once your dentist has chosen the color, he or she will slightly abrade or etch the surface of the tooth to roughen it. The tooth will be coated lightly with a conditioning liquid, which helps the bonding material adhere.
When the tooth is prepared, your dentist will apply the tooth-colored, puttylike resin. The resin is molded and smoothed until it's the proper shape. Then the material is hardened with an ultraviolet light or laser.
After the bonding material hardens, your dentist will further trim and shape it. Then he or she will polish the material until it matches the sheen of the rest of the tooth surface.
The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes to an hour. If you're having more than one tooth done, you may need to schedule several visits.

Follow-Up
Tea, coffee, cigarette smoke and other substances can stain the resin used in bonding. To prevent or minimize stains, it's essential to avoid eating or drinking foods that can stain for the first 48 hours after any composite procedure. In addition, brush your teeth often and have them cleaned regularly by a dental hygienist.

Risks
The composite resin used in bonding isn't nearly as strong as a natural tooth. Biting your fingernails or chewing on ice or pens can chip the material. Bonding usually lasts several years before it needs to be repaired. How long it actually lasts depends on how much bonding was done and your oral habits.

When To Call a Professional
In the days after having the bonding done, call your dentist if you notice sharp edges on the bonded teeth, or your teeth feel strange or "off" when you bite down.
At any time, call your dentist if the bonding chips or pieces fall out.

VENEERS (Most Inevasive)
What Is It?
Veneers are ultrathin shells of ceramic or resin material that are bonded to the front of teeth, much in the same way that artificial fingernails are attached to the natural fingernails. The only requirement is that the teeth be structurally sound.

What It's Used For
Veneers are used to correct cosmetic defects on teeth or to correct the bite (the way the teeth come together). Cosmetic imperfections that can be corrected with veneers include teeth that are slightly crooked or stained, chipped teeth, gaps between teeth or uneven teeth. In the past, the only way to correct these or other imperfections was to cover the teeth with a crowns.
The advantage of veneers over crowns is that the teeth need less extensive shaping prior to the procedure. Sometimes this means that little or no anesthetic is required. However, some teeth will require more extensive shaping before getting veneers.
Veneers made from porcelain or resin look natural. Porcelain veneers resist stains from coffee, tea or smoking better than resin veneers. On the other hand, resin veneers can be made thinner so that less tooth structure needs to be removed before they are applied. Your dentist will decide whether to use porcelain or resin based on your circumstances.
Veneers usually require three dental visits: one for a consultation and two to complete the veneers.

Preparation
During your first visit, your dentist will examine your teeth to make sure veneers are appropriate for you. He or she will explain what the procedure will involve and some of the limitations.

How It's Done
On the second visit, your dentist may need to remove up to 1.5 millimeters of enamel to accommodate the thickness of the veneers. In some cases, no enamel has to be removed. This procedure is not painful, but it may be uncomfortable for some people. Your dentist will use a local anesthetic if necessary.
Next, your dentist will take an impression of the teeth, which will be sent to a dental laboratory. The laboratory will manufacture the veneers to fit your teeth. It usually takes one or two weeks for the veneers to be made. A temporary veneer may be applied during this time.
The veneers will be applied during the third visit. Your dentist will apply them temporarily with water or glycerin, so he or she can check the fit and color and you can see what they will look like. If the color of the veneers or cement is not quite right, it can be adjusted. Sometimes the veneer will need to be sent back to the laboratory to get the ideal shade.
Once you're satisfied with the veneers, your dentist will clean your teeth thoroughly and cement the veneers with bonding agents, which are hardened with a high-intensity light.

Follow-Up
It can take time for you to get used to the appearance and feel of your new teeth, but you won't have to do anything special to care for them. You should be careful not to bite your nails, chew on pencils, ice or other hard objects, or otherwise put unnecessary pressure on your teeth, because the veneers can come off.
You won't have to change the way you floss or brush. Your dentist probably will ask you to come back in a few weeks so he or she can check the veneers for any problems.

Risks
If enamel is removed, your teeth can become sensitive.
The veneers may not match the color of your other teeth exactly.
Veneers may fall off. A temporary veneer is more likely to fall off because it needs to be attached in such a way that it can be easily removed.

When To Call a Professional
If your teeth seem very sensitive after having veneers put on, or if the veneers crack or fall off, contact your dentist.

Answer 6

I think bracelet would look terrific, but if you are opposed to them go see an orthodontist and look into spacers. They can gradually move your teeth around in your mouth.
