1.) For that gap, you either need to have them make an actual tooth big enough to cover one of your other tooth to fill that gap (I saw a dentist do it to one of the contestants on America's Next Top Model...remember...the one who didn't want to fix her gap), or get braces. You CAN'T fix it without either one of them. I suggest you put a down payment and make monthly payments afterwards.

Most hospitals/clinics/dentists offer them when you say "Can I make payments?"

2.) NOOOOOOOO. Do NOT file it yourself. You shouldn't do ANYTHING by yourself. I'm gonna say one thing, if you have problems with your teeth, you can't do it yourself...you HAVE to go to the dentist. And if it bugs you so much go to a dentist that will fix it for you since yours said you don't need to fix it. Also, chips/cavities gives you bad breath...so fix it IF you can.

3.) I'd suggest Crest Whitestrips Premium. But the difference between them are the days it takes for your teeth to get white.

Other ways to whiten them are with the "strawberry" technique.

And baking soda.

Also, look into getting lumineers/veneers if you like it. Fix it NOW so you can have pretty teeth when you get older. It's better to fix your teeth when you're young.

Good luck!

Well, for the gap, braces would be the way to go. You can talk to your dentist about veneers which would actually fix all of these problems, though. It would fill in the gap, whiten, and fix the chip. It's cosmetic, though, and you should not try and do any filing yourself. Crest Whitestrips work as well for just whitening.

You must have a Degauss choice within the displays OSD menu. Try hitting that a couple of occasions. However, you're going to have to wait approximately 20 mins among cycles for the degauss circuit to reset safely. If that's now not having an outcome then take the track to a TV fix save and they are going to be equipped to make use of a a lot more strong degauss wand or ring on it. It will take approximately 30 seconds to repair. I could strongly suggest towards strapping magnets to a drill. That appears like a well option to get a magnet embedded within the wall, and even worse in you.

a cheaper way to fix a gap is to ask your dentist about a retainer (still pricy, but way better than braces) chip, i dont know. yellow-- aqua fresh trays work (crest slips, dont waste your money) but id reccomend armon hammer advance white toothpaste, it works well, but you gotta get used to the taste

veneers, bonding, braces, or some combo would help. if you don't have money, try to find a clinic or a dental school in your area.
