A. You need a full assessment to assess the prognosis of your teeth, if there are no adult teeth you need to looking at implants, your dentist may be able to refer you to a hospital for treatment.

You could use this or maybe an adhesive bridge to close the gap or an implant ?

I have just had veneers fitted to close a gap between my front teeth but they look too big and I have become very self conscious. Can they be removedand smaller ones fitted?

Braces or veneers, a brace would probably be best but the gap might not close completely
