Gaps can be easily fixed

You have many choices for your gaps in your teeth. Number one- Go see an orthodontist to see if you are a good candidate for braces.

You look at it and decide if you like it and go from there-good luck-

What to do about gaps?

Spacing or diastemas or gaps can be improved on by bonding adding tooth color filling materials on to teeth $100-$600 per tooth or veneers or crowns covering the tooth surface wit procelain $900-2000.00 per tooth or orthodontics $2250.00-7000.00 usually will take between 6 months and 2 yrs. The reason for the range is the expertise by the doctor and materials and time. Good luck Kevin Coughlin DMD, MBA, MAGD CEO Baystate Dental PC

Braces with vaneers or vaneers

Picture was not as clear as I would like to give more detailed suggestions. I recommend consultation with the dentist to discuss your goals. I usually prefer combination of braces and vaneers to get best esthetic and functional results but if braces is not an option then crowns and vaneers can bring the results you want depending upon your teeth position,shape,length etc. Best of luck see video

Tooth spacing

It is very difficult to give you any advice based off of the picture you posted, it is very small. There are a few things that can be done with spacing. I would recomend contacting both an orthodontist and a cosmetic dentist. Get consultations from both, they should both be able to give you good options for achieving your goals.
