Hi...I think instead of quick fix...think long term fix....so u dun hv to face problems in future....best possible treatment for gap in teeth is braces...
But as u said tym is a constraint. ...go for only laminates on ur teeth...as u conserve a lot of ur tooth structure. ...
Also as compared to crown ur laminate has much more longevity. ..
Take care. ..
Next Steps
visit a dentist. ..nd get a smile evaluation done..
Health Tips
conserve tooth structure as much as possible. ...dat will help u...in future

A quick fix would be cosmetic veneers , laminates or crowns.
Crowns being the most robust with good longevity.

Hello,
you have other cosmetic options like veneers/laminates or direct closure of the gap(for small or medium sized spacing) using tooth coloured restorative materials,which gives quick results,if you are not willing for ortho treatment.Regards,Dr Sumanmakam,Dental arts,jayanagar,bangalore

Ya, it is possible to close the gap between your front teeth. For that you need to visit a dentist for a clinical examination so that a proper esthetic treatment planning can be made.
