What are my options to close my big gappy teeth?

Q. Hi there. I have been unhappy with the gaps in my upper and lower teeth. I had them recently filled but still i have a gummy smile and not all the gaps in my lover set of teeth could be filled because the gaps were to big. What other treatments could i get to get a really nice stright smile? Thanks for your time.

A. You need to have your teeth assessed properly you may be able to have the spaces closed with braces either fixed metal or invisalign.  Another option may be porcelain veneers as this could also reduce the gummy smile.

You could consider wearing braces, I would advise a consultation with a specialist orthodontist.
