I have always had a very small gap between my top 2 front teeth. I used to hate it as a youngster but have grown to embrace it, it's very small. I have lost those teeth in an accident, amongst others. I have to get dentures soon, implants are way out of my budget, and was wondering if there's any way to get that small gap on my dentures.
