I had a slight front tooth gap from beginning.
Now after delivery the gap is increased and looks very awkward.

Options available are:
1. Light-cured composite, it's a gap filling material which will be of same shade as your tooth (1 appointment).
2. Laminate veneers, it's a prosthesis which will be bonded only on the involved tooth.
Minimal preparation of tooth is required.
(2 appointments)
3. Orthodontic correction, will need an OPG xray for it.
Health Tips
Are the gums swollen? gaps can increase because of gums issue after pregnancy.
