Why between my two front tooth have a gap %26 is getting wider?
1. How much does it cost to go to a dentist to mend it?(teenager)
2.Why is it getting wider?
Answer:
Gaps are common in people who have 1.%26gt; prominent interdental papilla (the gum tissue between the two front teeth), 2.%26gt; when permanent teeth are still coming out and not all of them are in yet, 3.%26gt; when teenagers are still growing bec the jaws are growing along with the whole body.It may or may not go away after reaching the peak of puberty (meaning the growth spurt). If it doesn't go away after all permanent teeth are in, then that is the best time to seek a dentist's advice whether you may need braces to close the gap, or just use bonded restorations, where composite fillings or resins are used to fill the gap and make your two front teeth a little wider than they are but with the right contour and proportion to make them look real. Or you might be referred to an oral surgeon if the prominent papilla has to be surgically removed.
So, it all depends on the factors just mentioned. It will take a professional to discern which way to go, so best advice for you is to seek professional care. The cost to repair will depend on the cause of the gap. The only reason why it gets bigger is because you are still progressively growing.
Your teeth shift as you grow older so the gap is getting wider now. Just see your dentist to ask what he recommends for treatment.

1. it'll probably cost a lot of money. depends on which dentist you go to.

U DO NT WANT A ROOT CANAL DO U? JUST GO TO THE DENTIST PLEASE.
This is called a Diastima. It is very common. The size of the gap differs among people. Orthodontics may correct this problem, but depending on how thick the papilla tissue is between those teeth, gum surgery may be needed to reduce the tissue or a small wire placed behind the teeth may be necessary to keep the space closed (this is after the orthodontics is completed). As you age if you clench or grind your teeth, the space can increase due to the force moving the teeth apart. Periodontal disease causes a reduction of bone support around teeth. The less bone, the easier the tooth can be moved. Orthodontics is expensive and varies in cost throughout the states. You can expect to pay approximately $5000 or more these days.
There are many reasons for your teeth to show this "gap" you mention. It shouldnt be getting any wider now so you should visit a dentist and have an x-ray done for him to know if everything is normal. There are some cases in which a supernumerary tooth called mesiodens is found between your incisives, in this case it should be taken out through surgery. Another chance may be that there is a lesion growing inyour maxilla and its causing your teeth to separate. To make it short, just go to a dentist and let him know about your concern, thats the best you can do.
It is the way your teeth are growing in.
