EXCESS SPACING IN UPPER TEETH

Your best result would likely be from conventional orthodontics looking at the bite and other concerns in addition to the excess space. A compromise could be to have your family dentist do some bonded restorations to make the teeth larger , improve their shapes, and close the space as much as possible. If you ever decide later to change your mind and do braces the bonding could be removed.
