Maybe you refer to that little open area between your two teeth as a gap. Maybe you say you have a space. Whatever term you use to refer to it, you may or may not feel good about it. You may also find that you’re not sure about what to think about this little separation between your two teeth in terms of smile care. Unless you’re absolutely, 100 percent cool with a gap or two and you have never even thought about it, our Conroe, TX team reminds you that we are happy to help you come to a conclusion about your feelings and whether you may want cosmetic care!

#1: If You Like Them, Keep Them

If you are more than happy with the way that your gaps look and they never cause you any upset or problems in terms of your oral health or dental hygiene, then don’t worry about them! There’s no reason to seek cosmetic care or otherwise if the spaces are not causing any problems.

#2: If You Dislike Them, We Can Help

On the other hand, if you aren’t a huge fan of your gaps in your smile, then you are certainly invited to come in to learn more from our team about how we can make your smile better. There are multiple ways to close little gaps in your smile, so don’t worry that you are without a solution. First, we might address the space with bonding, which means we will apply composite (it will match your teeth), thereby essentially spot treating the issue. It will then look like your teeth touch. Or, we may suggest porcelain veneers, depending on your needs. Veneers are often best when you are unhappy with your gaps and more and would like further cosmetic care for additional esthetic issues.

#3: They Can Make Hygiene Harder

Remember: Gaps are often all about appearances. However, sometimes, they can make it difficult for you to keep your smile nice and clean all day because food tends to get trapped in those little spaces. Fortunately, we can absolutely select a treatment to close the gap, so food no longer becomes stuck, and you can rest assured that you can easily promote your best oral health and comfort with your consistent care.
