Invisalign & Orthodontics for a Front Tooth Gap
This young female patient came to our clinic unhappy with a noticeable space between her front teeth, a condition known in dental jargon as a diastema. She found herself constantly focusing on the gap when looking at pictures of herself on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Even her grandmother had pointed out the space, leaving the patient eager for a change. To address her concerns, Dr. Ari Katsnelson designed a custom orthodontic plan to gently close the gap. Over the course of about eight months, the teeth were carefully guided into their ideal positions. Because these types of spaces have a tendency to bounce back, it was crucial that she was a highly compliant patient to ensure the gap remained fully closed. As the teeth moved together, the gum tissue beautifully adapted and grew naturally into the new space. The final result is a stunning, perfectly aligned smile. The patient was absolutely thrilled to finally have the seamless look she had always wanted, giving her wonderful renewed confidence for every photo.
