Can I have any treatment for tooth gap?

Thursday, January 21st, 2010
Q.
I have a filling which is root canal filled, but the entire tooth has now gone from above the gum, leaving me with a gap.

What options are there for tooth gap?

Thursday, January 14th, 2010
Q.
Hello I am waiting to have a root canal done because my right front tooth is dead and slightly discoloured. After I will have clear step braces to close the gap between my two front teeth.
