Can braces be worn even with imcomplete set of teeth (especially a front tooth, to have enough space for it.)?

Question: I have lost a front tooth and another adjacent to my right front tooth. i would like to have it fixed but (thru fixed bridge maybe) but there's not enough space for the front tooth. I'm using denture right now, with the front tooth, not the right size because of lack of space. Is it possible to have braces first, to have enough space for my front tooth and then have a fixed bridge?

Answers:
With braces, they can create exactly how much space is needed for a bridge or an implant. It's probably a good idea to go ahead and do that.

Other Answers:
Absolutely yes! This would be the recommended procedure prior to having a bridge made. The orthodontist can attach a fake tooth to the braces wire so that it looks normal while the teeth are being moved.

I think so. I had two teeth gone in the front (the incisors I think) and now one of them has came in and they are fixing to put a thing on it. Until last month they put a spring wire thing on the wire of the braces so that during the process of moving your teeth there will be enough space left for it. Hope this helps any.
