Closing the Gap with Metal Braces
Kavitha, a 21-year-old college student, visited Dr. Siva Nagini feeling self-conscious about her smile. The gap between her upper front teeth made her uncomfortable, and she found it difficult to smile confidently in public.
After a thorough consultation, our dental team patiently listened to her concerns and made sure she felt at ease throughout the visit. A detailed examination, including X-rays, confirmed that she had diastema, a gap between the teeth.
Based on the diagnosis, orthodontic treatment was recommended. Kavitha was advised to go ahead with metal braces to gradually align her teeth and close the gap over time. The treatment plan was explained clearly, and she was guided through what to expect during the one-year process.
Kavitha felt relieved and confident after the consultation, happy to begin her journey toward a healthier, more confident smile.
