There should not be any nerve damage moving a molar forward
There should be no nerve damage by moving a second molar into a first molar position. You will need to have a TAD(Temporary Anchorage Device)placed first to use as an anchor to move the tooth forward without moving the front teeth back.

The result of closing space of first molar
If a GOOD orthodontist can move your second molar into the space previously occupied by your first molar, there should be NO NERVE DAMAGE.
