Spacing Images
Anterior (front) tooth spacing is a condition in which there are noticeable spaces between the teeth. It commonly happens in kids and if not treated at a reputed orthodontic office it can stay in your adulthood as well. Crowding may result from incorrect tooth emergence and primary teeth that fall out too soon or too late.
What Causes Dental Spacing?
The mismatch between the jaw bones and teeth’s sizes is the most significant of all the factors. A gap develops if the jaw bone is larger than normal. The two top front teeth are where this gap generally develops. However, there are a lot of additional factors that might lead to dental spacing as well.- Thumb sucking throughout childhood can produce gaps between the two upper front teeth.

- Some people have a tendency to push their tongue against the rear of the upper front teeth. The two upper front teeth may be gradually pushed forward by this consistent force, creating space between them.
- In some people, the labial frenum merely extends downward to leave a gap between the two top front teeth. Not to mention that it has an extremely unattractive appearance.
- Dental spacing might also result from gum disease. The jaw bone may shrink as a result of severe gum disease. Dental space may result from the adjacent teeth being loose due to bone recession.
- Spacing can also result from failing to replace lost teeth due to trauma or dental extraction.
