A small space between front teeth can sometimes be closed with veneers, provided the teeth do not end up looking too wide. See how that balance is worked out.
Let's find a time
Gaps are a matter of width. Closing a space means adding material to the tooth on one or both sides, and each tooth can only grow so much before it starts to look out of proportion. That is why a veneer plan for spacing has to think about the whole row, not only the gap you can see.
If you live in Garden City and this is on your mind, a visit to Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street can establish whether your space falls within what veneers can handle. For some people, bonding or orthodontics turns out to be the more fitting approach.

A closed gap should not come at the cost of teeth that seem unnaturally broad.
Sometimes more than the two teeth beside a gap are looked at when working out overall symmetry.
Where appropriate, a mock-up or digital image shows how the change may appear before final work begins.
The choice depends on the size of your gap, the condition of the teeth, and how you would prefer to get there.
They are considered for small spaces, particularly when you also want to adjust shape or colour.
A veneer is not automatically the more conservative choice for a space.
Gap size alone does not make the decision. The examination looks at your bite, gums and enamel as well.
With spacing cases, seeing the proposed proportions matters a great deal, and the process is arranged to allow that.
Request your visitPhotographs and scans record the space and surrounding teeth. Your goals are discussed along with the findings from your examination.
A digital or physical preview may reveal how wide your teeth would appear once the space closes, which helps with honest decisions.
Where the plan requires preparation, enamel is shaped conservatively. Detailed records are captured next so the veneers can be fabricated to suit.
Veneers are tried in and evaluated before they are bonded, so you can approve how they fit and how the space now looks.
Some people want a gap gone entirely. Others just want it smaller. Knowing where you stand, and whether the space has grown or changed over time, gives the dentist a clearer brief.
Has a gap appeared or widened recently? Be sure to mention that when you get in touch, so it can be looked at as part of your examination.
Take a seat before your appointment begins.
No one should talk you into closing a space you are at peace with. Come with your own view, and expect a conversation about options, not a sales pitch.
If a preview looks too wide or just not like you, tell us. That is what the preview is for.
Ask how preparation works, and what it would mean for those teeth, before you agree to any of it.
Nervous about dental work on your front teeth? Bringing it up helps us discuss what would make things easier.
After the space is closed
Closing a gap can change how you clean that area. Veneered teeth still need ordinary care, along with some thought about protecting them.
Cleaning between those teeth stays important. Ask for pointers if the newly closed space feels different when you floss.
Save your teeth from hard objects, and raise the subject of a night guard if you tend to clench or grind.
Gums can alter, and the tooth at the veneer’s margin may decay. Veneers themselves can also chip, come off or need renewing.
Any urgent worry about your teeth or a veneer calls for a phone call to the clinic.

Helpful details about dental veneers in Garden City.
Ask our teamThey suit small spaces, and there is no single cut-off. It depends on the width of the teeth involved and whether the outcome would still look natural, which is assessed with photographs, scans and sometimes a preview.
It might. Bonding uses tooth-coloured material for selected smaller changes. After an examination, the dentist can compare it with veneers based on your goal and tooth condition.
If moving teeth would be healthier or more conservative, orthodontics may be suggested. Invisalign is one clear aligner option used for selected alignment and bite goals.
This varies. Symmetry, visible teeth and your goals all help determine the number, and treating extra teeth does not by itself produce a better outcome.
You can. The form on this page sends your request to our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg, and staff follow up to agree on a time. Calling (204) 338-3003 works too.
Your assessment may steer you toward one of these. Each page explains how the treatment works and who may benefit.
Learn how dental bonding in Winnipeg uses tooth-coloured resin to repair small chips, close minor spaces and refine tooth shape, often in one visit.
