What is the procedure for teeth collapsing around a missing tooth?

January 11, 2021
Asked By:askingperson in Atlanta, GA

I have a missing molar (second one in on the bottom) since childhood. Now I am in my 50, and the teeth have been collapsing or at least pushing as nature takes its course around the missing teeth. What are the procedures available to me? Braces to align then then an implant?
