Taking Care Of An Embarrassing Gap Between Teeth
A person who has a gap between their teeth can feel that the space draws unwelcome attention, and hurts the quality of their appearance. If you are someone who has issues with their smile because of poor spacing, the problem can be addressed through several different treatment options. Of course, if the issue is connected to the alignment of your teeth, orthodontic work can help. Invisalign treatment can close a gap, and address any other alignment issues that you might have, while making your adjustment time feel less intrusive. It may also be possible to hide this flaw through a different cosmetic dental procedure, which can lead to results in less time. Our Sheridan, WY dental office is prepared to help you address your smile gap, and regain full confidence in the way you look! (more…)
