It depends on the way the gap is treated. If it is done by orthodontic treatment with braces on teeth, it will take 11/2 to 2 years. If it is managed by restoring the teeth to fill the gaps, it will take one day to one month depending on the way it is restored.

Hi
It takes about a year to close the gap with braces but the treatment time would be reduced to about 6/8 months if you go with clear aligners

If you are opting for braces then 12-16 months treatment time is to be expected. You will be advised to wear a retainer for a few years after that
