A couple of questions

Hi, I'm new to these forums but would ask a couple of things. I do not at this current time have any braces/orthodontics, but do have three gaps in my front upper four teeth (two are rather small, but one is large enough for me to fit my tongue in), as well as a misplaced bicuspid next to the gapped teeth.

Now, the rest of my teeth for the most part are fine, so what I was wondering was if there was an efficient way to fix these problems in a quick amount of time (ie within a couple of months), without extensive use of orthodontics? Thanks.

It would be helpful if you could post some photos of your teeth to aid the doc in his answer to you.

Most often we can solve almost any request, it just depends on how far into the dental process one wants to go. The best thing for you to do is ask your dentist for a referral to an orthodontist, and go in for a vist to see if he or she can meet your needs

Thanks, but unfortunately I do not have pictures to share with you guys at this moment.

I guess I'll just ask my dentist next time to see what can be done and play it by ear from there.
