I have a baby k-9 still in my mouth and the adult tooth is beginning to be sort of crooked up in my gums. The dentist said the only way to pull the tooth down was to get braces, does anyone know if there any other ways to work this problem out? Invisaline? Or am I stuck?

My son had the same problem. First, they pulled out the baby tooth and waited to see if the adult tooth would come in. It did not. So, he had to have the gum around the tooth cut open and a band put on it (like braces). Then they put another band on a lower tooth and used rubber bands to move the tooth. It worked in a few weeks.
