Hi. The diagnosis for this is called Midline Diastema. When the gap is larger than 4mm we ideally correct it via Orthodontics, i.e braces. You can certainly go for veneers or zirconia crowns but that also requires additional tooth reduction. Besides to achieve proper teeth proportions, atleast doing the front four teeth with veneers/zirconia caps may be needed. Also, the reason for this midline gap is maybe a high frenum (from the pic you have posted) which is the tissue attached from the upper lip to the gum. Laser treatment for this is painless. So do not worry.

Orthodontics is the answer . Then painless laser frenectomy after evaluating Braces or Invisalign ( clear aligners ) .

Hi , Aligning the natural teeth with braces at ur age is the best option. Any minor surgical procedures like frenectomy that will be done before the treatment wont be very scary or painful.
