Conversations with a Gap: What Not to Say, and How to Show Real Support.

Having a gap in my teeth has been a defining part of my appearance for over 30 years. I’ve heard a wide range of comments—some thoughtful and supportive, others uncomfortable or even rude. In my experience, many people are simply curious and don’t mean to be insensitive, but they sometimes don't realize how their words come across. Here are a few things to avoid saying to someone with gap teeth, along with tips for making those conversations more positive and supportive.

What Not to Say to Someone with Gap Teeth

"Are you missing teeth?" This question can feel incredibly invasive and awkward. Instead of fostering a warm conversation, it can put the person with gap teeth on the defensive. It implies that their smile is incomplete or "wrong," which can be hurtful. The reality is, a gap is often a natural, beautiful feature that’s part of someone’s individuality.

"Have you considered braces?" Asking this can unintentionally suggest that the person should want to "fix" their smile. Many people with gap teeth have likely thought about braces or may even have had them. Ultimately, it’s a personal choice and isn’t anyone else's business. Rather than focusing on whether they’ve considered changing their appearance, try to appreciate their smile as it is.

"You remind me of someone else with a gap." Comparisons can be tricky. Even when they’re meant positively, they can feel uncomfortable. For some, a gap might be a feature they’re sensitive about, so drawing a comparison may come off as if you’re identifying them by a single trait rather than seeing them as a unique individual.

"I heard people with gaps are…" Repeating stereotypes or generalizations about people with gaps is a huge misstep. Some stereotypes link gaps with mischievousness or even "quirky" traits, which can feel dismissive or just plain inaccurate. Instead, take the time to get to know their story directly from them, rather than relying on clichés or hearsay.

Supportive Things to Say Instead

"What’s your gap teeth story?" This simple question can open up a genuine and meaningful conversation. Many people with gap teeth have stories about how they grew to embrace or deal with it. Asking this shows that you’re curious about their experiences, not just their appearance.

Offer a Compliment A kind, genuine compliment about their smile can mean a lot. For many, a gap isn’t always easy to embrace. A compliment can be a small but significant boost in confidence and can make their day.

Take Time to Listen If someone with a gap wants to share their experiences, just listen. Don’t assume you already know what they’ve been through or how they feel about their gap. Listening without interrupting or assuming gives them the space to share their unique story.

Be Kind This might sound simple, but kindness can make a world of difference. Many people with gap teeth have dealt with negative comments and stares, which can be hurtful over time. Kindness can help them feel accepted and appreciated just as they are.

Over the years, I’ve heard countless comments about my gap. Some were well-meaning, some were thoughtless, and some were simply curious. I believe it’s natural to be intrigued by things that are different, but it’s just as important to approach those differences with empathy and kindness. Have you ever experienced any of these comments, or have you found other ways to connect with people over their unique traits? I’d love to hear your stories and thoughts below.
