Everyone says I am beautiful. I can see where my face is pretty, but I have a huge gap in my front teeth. Could that be why I can’t get a date? If so, what can I do about it at 37? I’m not wearing braces.<\/p>\n

Jenna,<\/p>\n

I would be ridiculously unfair of me to say your teeth are the reason you can’t get a date. It could be you just haven’t met the right guy. It could be you’re beautiful AND wicked smart, so men are intimidated. \u00a0I won’t convince you to get a procedure based on something emotional and personal.<\/p>\n

What I can do is tell you how to discreetly fix your teeth at 37. You have a few options.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0Fill in the gap. \u00a0That can be done wtih dental bonding. I have a hesitation with this, simply because you said the gap was huge. You don’t want to do this if filling it in will make your smile look unnatural.<\/li>\n
  2. Invisalign<\/a>. \u00a0If all that is worrying you about your smile is the gap, Invisalign can close it without you having to wear traditional metal braces. \u00a0This uses clear aligners to gently shift your teeth into proper alignment. No one will even know you’re doing it.<\/li>\n
  3. Porcelain Veneers. I’d only suggest this if you needed a complete smile makeover. It can change the shape, size, and color of your teeth.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I’d pick one of these only if YOU are unhappy with your smile. \u00a0Otherwise, go about your life. The right man will come along.<\/p>\n
