Gap between teeth in an adult is not physiologic and needs to be corrected after analysing the cause of the same. An Orthodontic correction is the most stable/permanent solution to the problem. Orthodontic correction can be achieved using either fixed appliances (metal/ceramic/self ligating braces etc.) or removable appliances (Invisalign etc.)
Next Steps
Consult an Orthodontist - I would be visiting Mysore on Jan 5-6.
Health Tips
Please carry along any radiographs already taken while you go for an Orthodontic consult. Good luck!

Hello mam, we need to examine whether the gap is between front two teeth or the gap is between all the teeth... There are cosmetic procedures like laser filling, crowns and veneers... If the gap is not suitable for laser filling or veneers, the treatment will be orthodontics (Braces treatment)..

Hi you can get the gaps closed by fixed orthodontic treatment by metal braces, ceramic or tooth coloured braces. Invisalign clear aligners are virtually invisible, removable, predictable, and comfortable option for closing spaces or straightening teeth. they donot require any change in your dietary habits or lifestyle. Over 6 million smiles have been treted by Invisalignn world over. However, the orthodontist has to be invisalign certified to carry out the procedure. So refer to Invisalign india website to search for a certified orthodontist.

Hello
A clinical examination is required to suggest you anything on this issue.
If the gap is more than 2mm between each teeth an orthodontic treatment is best advised. You also opt for lingual braces or Invisalign if aesthetic is your concern.
If the gap is less than 2mm various options like cosmetic veneers, laser fillings, crowns are available.
However the best treatment plan can be advised only after a clinical examination.
Next Steps
visit your nearby dentist or orthodontist asap
