Fixing a gap with dental bonding
Jan 31, 2012

It is hard to answer this without a photo, but cosmetic dental bonding can be used to solve a variety of problems with front teeth. How damaged is your front tooth? If there is enough healthy tooth structure remaining, then dental bonding may be an option. Cosmetic bonding can close most gaps (if not too large) and this procedure is less expensive than something such as porcelain crowns and veneers.

Jan 31, 2012

You may have a variety of treatment options available to improve the appearance of your small teeth. I'd recommended you seek out a well-trained cosmetic dentist.

Invisalign may work for you
Jan 30, 2012

Based on your photos, Invisalign may be able to help correct the crowding and overbite. My main concern is how rotated your lower left canine is— and this may be a difficult tooth for Invisalign to straighten to an ideal position.
