The simplest treatment is to ask your dentist to add composite (white filling) material to the edges of your teeth. It would take less than 30 mins and can last for years. I did it for my wife 25 years ago and it's still there.
The fillings are very strong but will chip if you have any abnormal oral habits like biting fingernails, opening things with your teeth, chewing pens,...

You have got to get rid of that space between your 2 front teeth! There is nothing more unattractive and distracting. Get braces if you need to. It doesn't matter if the rest of your teeth are straight; you've got to get those moved together.

The only thing you can do is get braces. They can add on to those two front teeth, but then you may look like you have "chikclets" for teeth.

Ask your parents to take you to an orthodontist. They'll be the best people to ask. Fixing that space doesn't mean that your straight teeth will misalign, but the doc is the best person to discuss your options with. There may also be other solutions available now.

An orthodontist can also put veneers (sp?) on your teethe that will fill the space. Lauren Hutton, an older model and actress, had that done but then later had them taken out and now she just goes with the gap between her teeth.

u have what is called a diasthema. if its not too big, u can get a composite filling to seal the gap. if you want a better quality look, i suggest using invisaline only for the top part of your teeth, or you could get veneers.

for that issues your orthadontist would be able to give your a retainer, which some of them are invisible, unfortunetly you are going to be in treatment for at least 6 months but alas you'll have the teeth you want.

There is nothing you can do yourself, you'll have to have it taken care of by an Ortho.
