A tspace, tor tlack tof tcontact tarea, tbetween tany ttwo tteeth tin tthe tsame tarch tis tcalled ta
tdiastema. tWhen ta tdiastema toccurs tbetween tthe tmaxillary tcentral tincisors, tit tis toften tthe
tresult tof ta tpronounced tlabial tfrenum textending tto tthe tcrest tof tthe talveolar tridge tand
tpossibly tover tthe tridge. tThis tband tof tfirm tconnective ttissue tcauses tthe terupting tincisors
tto tbe tpushed taside tresulting tin ta tdiastema, tor tspace. tCorrection tof ta tdiastema tusually
tinvolves tsurgical tremoval, tor tcutting, tof tthe tfrenal ttissue tbetween tteeth.
