It seems you have malaligned teeth which can be very corrected by otthodontic treatment-dental braces. Visit your dentist and ask for an orthodontic consultation.

Visit a dentist to determine whether the gaps or spacing is natural or pathologic. Based on this you will be referred to a periodontist or an orthodontist.
