The best thing to do is have an orthodontic consult. If nothing else is found wrong with your teeth besides a small space in the front, then I'm with you. Even actors have had that and many people think it is sexy to have a space. Just like the mole on the lip. lol. Good luck.
just every day try to push them together a bit. or talk to the dentist because by the time you are 17 the gap could close naturally but it could also get worse. just ask the dentist. or talk to an orthadonist he knows.
just get them your the child she's the parent your not going to win !!!!!!!
Braces aren't all that bad. I had them for 4 years and now I am so happy I put up with them because my teeth are perfect. I can't thimk of a way the gap would close off of the top of my head without braces.
Wait for a few years, many times the gap will close naturally. From http://aches.in/dentalbraces.html...
My mom said the same thing, and it turns out that my teeth are completely fine. I have very small spaces between a few teeth, and the orthodontist wanted to put in a fake tooth and push all my teeth to one side--what an idiot. Anyway, everytime I got to the dentist, they always ask me if I ever go braces! Depending how old you are, your head/mouth are still growing until you're around 15 or 16, I believe. So your teeth can still move or shift until then.
