you require bite closure to cure tongue thrust which is developed at the early ages during growth. u can use oral screen to stop habit in night time. kindly go with the braces soon to close gaps if not with age efficacy of treatment will delay. charges metal 20000
ceramic 30000

Hello as I see your age is 27 and it could be because of some habit in childhood like thumb sucking ,mouth breathing etc , it could be corrected by doing proper orthodontic treatment with some appliances . It will better if you go for consultation and X-ray would also be performed to plan the treatment.
Thanks hope it informative to you.
