Do lingual braces work for impacted teeth? (photo)

kimberlyrosemill
I have an impacted canine tooth, and was told I would need to get braces to bring the adult tooth down (there is still a baby tooth there). I'm 20 years old and do not want braces, what other options do I have? Lingual seems like the best option, but I'm not sure if I'm eligible. Could I have the baby and adult tooth removed, then get lingual braces and an implant?
