Close the Gap with Expert Diastema Treatment at Apollo Dental Clinic, Suchitra
A gap between the front teeth—known as a diastema—can affect both appearance and confidence. At Apollo Dental Clinic Suchitra, we offer expert diastema closure treatments to help you achieve a more uniform and attractive smile using safe, aesthetic, and minimally invasive techniques.
Whether your gap is due to genetics, thumb sucking, gum issues, or missing teeth, our team customises the treatment based on your specific dental structure and cosmetic goals.
What Is Diastema?
A diastema is a space or gap between two teeth, most commonly between the upper front teeth. It may be small or wide and can occur due to:
- Mismatch between jaw and tooth size
- Oversized labial frenum (tissue between upper lip and gums)
- Habits like thumb sucking or tongue thrusting
- Gum disease causing teeth to shift
- Missing or undersized teeth
Why Close the Gap?
- Improved smile aesthetics
- Enhanced self-confidence
- Better bite and chewing function
- Prevention of food trapping and speech issues
Diastema Closure Treatment Options
- Composite Bonding: Tooth-coloured resin is applied to reshape and fill the gap in a single visit.
- Dental Veneers: Thin porcelain covers bonded to front teeth for a long-lasting, natural look.
- Orthodontic Treatment: Braces or clear aligners gradually move teeth to close the gap.
- Frenectomy: If the cause is an oversized labial frenum, a minor surgical procedure may be done.
- Crowns or Bridges: Used in cases where teeth are missing or too small to support bonding.
Our Approach to Diastema Closure
- Comprehensive exam and digital imaging
- Discussion of aesthetic goals and treatment options
- Conservative and reversible techniques whenever possible
- Ensuring natural appearance, symmetry, and function
