Would it be possible to get a gap closed in my bottom front teeth even if I have signs of gingivitis?
Posted on September 10, 2010
Going to the dentist soon and I want the gap between my two bottom front teeth closed, but I have some signs of gingivitis that I intend to get treated. Would it be possible for him to close the gap (using whatever method available) if I have that?

Hello…Ok let me state my answer this way…Would you ask a doctor to perform a face lift if you had a serious infection that covered at least one cheek?…Of course you wouldn’t, you would first deal with the infection so as to make sure the face lift didn’t turn out bad when you did get it done…You need to first get the gum issue taken care of before you attempt to get the gap closed between the teeth…You don’t want to risk getting the gap closed and then lose some of the teeth due to gum infection you ignored. Good luck and I wish you well.
