Would You Recommend Using Tooth Gap Bands For Any Of Your Patients? I Need To Fix The Gap In My Smile.

Thursday, October 2nd, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Hughes. Would you recommend any of your patients to use: Teeth Gap Bands? For closing a gap in the front of someone’s teeth. I seen this website online, and it mentioned a less expensive way to close your gap and I was wondering if you think it would be safe to use.  I’ve read some reviews on their website and I want to try it because I will not be able to afford braces because my insurance doesn’t cover it. I would say my gap is about 2 inches wide and I want to get it closed. Thank you for your time.

What ways are there other than braces to fill tooth gaps?

Thursday, August 2nd, 2012
Q.

HI, i had a tooth extracted from each side of my mouth, these were different teeth of either side. I have had braces on for over 18 months now, and the gaps have are not closed, one the one side the gap is quite significant. I am a dancer, so having good teeth are quite important as i can’t work with the braces on. My orthodontist says that the gap is going to take a long time to close, but i cant have the braces on for any longer. My dentist is wondering why my orthodontist took my teeth out in the first place. so i was wondering if there was any way of filling the gaps on both sides, one side is larger than the other. I dot mind what happens as long as it isnt orthodontics, because i need a fast solution and have had braces on for long enough . Thanks 🙂

My bridge keeps falling off, but I don’t want a dental implant, what can I do?

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012
Q.

Hi Mark,

3 years ago, my side tooth was extracted and the dentist suggested that I have a bridge which is glued/cemented to either side of the teeth. For the past 2 years, I have gone back to my dentist (sometimes on a monthly basis) as the bridge keeps falling out. Each visit is costing me £90.00. I don’t want an implant. Would you suggest a false tooth, or is this not possible. Many thanks for you time.

How can I close gaps in my smile?

Tuesday, March 1st, 2011
Q.

As a child my dentist extracted several teeth leaving me with large gaps which I hate. As I get older I’m finding my confidence is getting worse and am desperate to do something. I have thought about invisalign but don’t know how ling the treatment would take. I did buy some teeth bands on the Internet and if I wear one all night it does close the gap in my front teeth. But when I take it off the gap opens again in minutes. I’ve considered knocking my teeth out and having dentures. I feel that low. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds like braces or repla… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Is there some other solution other than braces to fix my small and also large teeth gaps?

Monday, November 29th, 2010
Q.

I have a very small gap in my front teeth, and a larger gap between the front tooth and the lateral incisor. My teeth are straight and are healthy, it’s just that there are these gaps between them. I feel too old for braces as next year I’ll be going to university and really wouldn’t appreciate having braces at this stage in my life. Is there any other possible solutions to close the gaps? Even just the larger gap between the central incisor and the lateral incisor? Thank-you.
