For diastema closure you can get joint crowns on both teeth after the mouth cleanliness( oral hygiene protocol) has been followed. .Rest it requires a clinical assessment for a confirmed treatment plan..hope this will be of help. .

Hello,
As a cosmetic dentist I would suggest you need to check the periodontal status of your teeth by geeting some radiographs done.If there is an issue with the underlyieng supporting tissues,get it rectified first before you go for the cosmetic correction of the diastema.

First consultant a periodontist who can suggest you the best treatment or surgery needed for the grade of recession you are having.
After the gum therapy you can go for veneers or crowns to close the gap .
Also take a suggestion on closing the gap by orthodontic means but if you have periodontitis with poor bone support its better to avoid orthodontic treatment.

Hello. If you have a diastema and you know you have a gingival recession, you need to first treat the gingival problem. There are a lot of options recession,including surgical and cosmetic. Once your gums are healthy, you can treat your diastema by cosmetic building up of teeth ,crowns or othodontically.
