Here’s a simple solution. Find out what it would cost to have your teeth cosmetically bonded. Then go out and earn the money to get this accomplished and then you will have taken the responsibility to have it done. If you did this, I’m sure your parents would be impressed.
If you don’t do it this way, I’m sure neither your parents or myself would be surprised.
And who the heck is Lauren Conrad???

show him a picture of her teeth and tell him how you feel about yours..and ask him if its possible to make them look as simliar and good as hers

Dont listen to that guy about the wisdom teeth – many people do not need them removing
I would ask for his profetional opinion on closing the gap first – this could be a brace or retainer.
I would go with a retainer you wear while you sleep – if he says no you need a brace – get an invisible one – they are made of clear acrilic and fit to the inside of the teeth instead of the outside
They normaly take 6 months to a year to fix but as its a small gap – it could be shorter
When they are done take a picture of Lauren Conrad’s with you to your dentist and ask him to round your teeth off to look like hers – in some cases this can’t be done
- in that case there are small “fillers” that can be used – normaly used to fix cracks – but can be used cosmeticaly
if that dosn’t work id recomend veeners – they can last between 15-20 years before they need to be replaced – but not all of them may need to be replaced – they are expencive but worth it
GOOD LUCK

Maybe your parents care what it costs to make you “purtay.” You have to tell him what you want. But you are a pretty rude kid if you don’t think your parents care about the cost. Why would you want to look like some celebrity that won’t be famous in 6 months? Get a life. Grow up.

At 13 you can’t tell your dentist to do much of anything that cost money. Especially if you’re not the one paying. Talk w/ your parents. Maybe braces can help make the gap smaller.

Wow your awfully young to be considering such cosmetic adventures….
Your dentist will most likely tell you to wait until your done “growing” before he starts gluing and filing your teeth. The gap can be corrected by braces or it may get better once your wisdom teeth come in. (hench the waiting part)
There is more to Lauren Conrad’s teeth then just well… her teeth. Alot of what you see is also in her lips, smile and gum line so wishing your teeth would look like her’s may be all for nothing.
My best advice, speak to your dentist and parents. As far as I am concerned, at 13 yrs of age, if your teeth are clean, your breath fresh then you are perfect the way you are.

you are too young for cosmetic dentistry.
because when you are about 16 or 18 or 21ish you are going to need your wisdom teeth pulled, and then all that work will go down the drain.
when you get your wisdom teeth pulled, this alters the spread of your teeth. AFTER they are pulled, then you can have all the cosmetic dentisty you want, and you just give him a picture.
But I think this is all a bit weird, wanting teeth like someone else… why don’t you just aim for nice looking teeth, that fit your mouth and aren’t gapped or stained, ect.
