What you need to know
What happens at your appointment
Every visit at Dovers is clear and comfortable. Here is exactly what to expect.
Diastema Assessment
Your dentist measures the gap, assesses your bite and jaw relationship, and checks the cause of the diastema. This determines the best treatment approach.
Treatment Planning
Based on the assessment, your dentist presents treatment options suitable for your case with expected results, timelines, and costs. You choose what is right for you.
Treatment Delivery
Whether bonding (one visit), veneers (two visits), or orthodontics (months), treatment is carried out with precision and attention to natural appearance.
Review & Stability Check
A follow-up ensures the closure is stable, the bite is correct, and the result looks natural. Retention is discussed where relevant.

Frequently asked questions
Most gaps can be closed or significantly reduced with the right treatment. Very large gaps associated with missing teeth may require implants, bridges, or complex orthodontic work.
Bonding is faster (one visit), less expensive, and requires no enamel removal. Veneers are more durable and stain-resistant. For small to medium gaps with healthy teeth, bonding is often the most sensible first option.
Gaps closed with bonding or veneers can reopen if the underlying cause is not addressed. Orthodontic closure requires retainer wear to stay closed permanently.
Not always. Small gaps are often closed in one bonding appointment. Larger gaps associated with bite issues are better treated orthodontically.
Bonding or veneers: 1 to 2 appointments. Orthodontic closure with clear aligners or braces: 6 to 18 months depending on gap size.
