Front teeth bonded to close a gap. Any suggestions?

The bond lasts for a while and eventually needs to be redone. Each time it is rebonded my teeth are moved apart very slightly. To have a permanent solution, I will need to get the bonding material off (how long does that take) braces need to bring them together and then two wires will fasten the two front teeth together. Can I do fast braces for this procedure, it seems like it would be more cost effective? BTW I am 63 yrs young.
