I am 39 yo, I have tooth extraction last year due to really bad decay, all on top teeth ,tooth number #3, #13 and #14, dentist suggest partial denture, i did not do it, is it possible to move the molar forward to close the gap on tooth #3 (i have tooth #1 and #2) and #14 (i have #15) , leave the gap in #13 for mini implant later. thank you so much for your help.
