Hi Sr,
The diastema or spacing can be corrected by Ortho treatment or crowns or laminates based on the spacing.
Further health of your bone should be checked before deciding the treatment.
So kindly contact your nearby Dentist for best solution

Hello, Diastema is the space present in between upper or lower front teeth. You said 3-4 mm diastema in 4-5 months , thats quite strange at your age if it was not there since birth. There are quite a few treatment options like orthodontic intervention if the bone support is good, or crown/laminates etc depending on the clinical findings. Cost also depends on the severity of the problem, facility you are visiting, type of treatment option you are going for. In case you are going for ortho frequency may be 2-3 times a month
Next Steps
Visit your dentist and get it checked.

Have the gaps formed recently or its present from long time. If gaps are formed recently and if u feel that its increasing must be underlying bone and gums problem. If gaps present from very long time then various options present from orthodontic treatment, composite buildups, veneers or crowns. Need to visit ur dentist for options.
