Hello mam,
Before saying the treatment we will have to examine a space of 2 mm can be closed by veneers and anything more we can go for orthodontic treatment. In orthodontic treatment the proper closure will take place but it will take 1 to 1n half year .
Next Steps
consult a dentist.

The best and natural way to close gaps is Braces. Whereas Veneers are more for cosmetic purpose like chipped off teeth, discoloration etc. For veneers some amount of tooth preparation is required which would harm the Enamel of teeth unnecessarily.
Next Steps
Consult a good Orthodontist (braces specialist). You are most welcome to visit me and get a consultation for the same.
