Hi.. Gaps can surely be closed rather than filled. So you need to consult MDS Orthodontist to evaluate your case and plan a best suited treatment plan.
Thank you.

Gaps or spacing between the teeth can be corrected by orthodontic treatment which uses braces to realign your teeth.
This treatment may take upto 1 and half year depending on the type of spacing.
Minor spaces and inclinations can also be corrected using veneers which give results in a short span of time (Less than a month).
Type of treatment to choose can be decided after clinic examination.
Do visit a dentist for further queries.
I can help if you post some photos of the current condition of your teeth.
Hope this helps.

Hello there.
Yes, your gap can be reduced by braces.
applying braces would cause the teeth to be aligned well together.
i don't know what you mean by filling the gap.
the Gap cannot be filled with anything as such. therefore the teeth are brought closer to reduce the gap.
consult a dentist in person as this is a long procedure and involved frequent dental visits. the treatment will involve a bit of pain as well but you will not be dissatisfied.
All the Best.
Regards.
