Implant to fill the hole of a broken molar OR bracing the molar behind forward to cover the hole? (photo)

chsivic
My second last lower molar was broken and was taken out a year ago. Now the upper molar has protruded downward 2mm. One dentist suggested implant. Another suggested bracing the last lower molar forward to cover the missing molar. I'm also concerned that missing a molar would cause loosen teeth in the long run due to less horizontal support from other teeth.
