Multiple gaps at your age can be best managed by braces. Braces treatment usually takes a year or more for completion with monthly visits , if there is a single gap you can also consider tooth coloured fillings and capping ( preceded by RCT) as an option.

No besides dental braces,there are other methods to fill the gaps like intentional root canal treatment and crowns,what we call as smile designing or it is a part of cosmetic dentistry.
