What cheap treatment is there to help close tooth gap?

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have been paranoid about my teeth since forever i have recently turned 17 and there is a gap between my teeth at least 1cm or maybe more i don’t know how big it is, because its big enough to bother me and my smile! So anyway i was wondering if you could suggest any kind of solution to my gap? something that won’t cost a lot because i couldn’t afford it. The rest of my teeth are perfectly straight. I have asked my dentist about this a few times before and last month when i went he said nothing could be done on the NHS for me. He also said there could be the risk of a gap developing somewhere else in my teeth if i got braces 😐 please help me, thanks.,
A.
