Diastemas treatment in La Paz

Because of their aesthetic and functional nature, diastemas are usually assessed by the orthodontist: these are the visible spaces or gaps between two teeth, most often between the upper incisors. They may be temporary in childhood or persist into adulthood.

Common causes: They are related to the difference between the size of the teeth and the jaws, the attachment of certain gum tissues, or habits during development.

Frequent symptoms: The main sign is the space between the teeth; in general it causes no pain, although some people seek to correct it for aesthetic or bite-related reasons.

Which specialist treats it? The dentist and the orthodontist evaluate diastemas and discuss the alternatives according to each case. If the gap between your teeth bothers you, scheduling an appointment is a good starting point.
