Smile makeover with crowns

Based on x rays, thats how we can determine the best option for you, it can be arranged with crowns and bridges, if you do not want to go through braces, that way you will correct the way those teeth look, and you will even close that gap, there are several techniques, and yes, you will find a solution. With porcelain crowns we can change the shape, size, color, etc

Gap

It depends on many things. First your gums and teeth have to be in an excellent condition.  If there are no skeletal issues then braces could fix the gap and would be around $8-9k.

The size of your gap is quite large.  Combined with your deep bite, traditional orthodontics would be your best bet.  There are many orthodontists that will work on a monthly payment plan.
