This common dental issue, while purely aesthetic for some, can also pose challenges in speech and oral hygiene for others. At Greenwich Cosmetic & Family Dentistry, cosmetic dentist George Tsangaroulis, DDS recognizes the profound impact that dental spacing can have on both the confidence and overall oral health of his patients. With his extensive experience and knowledge, Dr. Tsangaroulis is dedicated to transforming and enhancing patient smiles through customized cosmetic treatments. To effectively address and close gaps between teeth, Dr. Tsangaroulis offers a variety of procedures, tailored to meet the unique needs and desires of each patient. Those include: Invisalign® The popular treatment, Invisalign®, is known for fixing a variety of orthodontic issues, such as misalignment, crowding, and gaps between teeth. Featuring clear, removable aligners, Invisalign® offers a discreet and convenient solution for straightening teeth. These aligners gradually shift teeth into a better position, helping to close gaps and contributing to a more harmonious, uniform smile. Porcelain Veneers A durable and aesthetically pleasing cosmetic restoration, porcelain veneers can address numerous concerns, including gaps, discoloration, and chips. Veneers are designed to cover the front and side surfaces of a tooth, allowing for corrections in shape, contours, and edges. For example, a narrow tooth that has unwanted spacing between the adjacent teeth can be made wider, reducing gaps and enhancing smile aesthetics. Cosmetic Bonding With tooth-colored resin, cosmetic dental bonding can improve mild imperfections, often with natural-looking results. The composite resin used during the procedure is applied directly to the tooth, then carefully molded and hardened to blend seamlessly with your smile. This treatment is particularly beneficial for closing gaps, as the moldable resin material allows for improvements in a tooth’s shape.
