Braces or filler: Your dentist can refer to an orthodontist. They will have options like fillers or braces to correct the gap. Many people have been in your shoes so good luck.

Diastema: This is what we call a diastema. You have multiple options. I recommend braces for the first treatment option so that teeth are not damaged from being shaved down as they would have to be for the other two options. Invisalign and six month smile are good options for braces for people with diastemas. The other options include veneers or crowns.

Iceberg: Sometimes space (diastema) between front teeth is because of small tooth size, improperly positioned teeth, or heavy gum tissue tag between front teeth. Sometimes there's a significant malocclusion and the space is just the tip of the iceberg. Talk to your dentist about options, there are many depending upon the cause of the space.
