I have a big gap between my upper front tooth that I want to be closed, during my last visit to my dentist she suggested laminate or filling to fix that I am confused between that and also after that, she pointed out that my molars are worn out and needed fix she suggested something called a night-guard should i consider that?

Laminates are not a good option as it will involve trimming of natural tooth structure,you should go for braces which will naturally close your gap without harming the existing teeth.Visit an Orthodontist for braces soon.
