i wouldn't suggest pulling a good tooth.

you can look into getting an adjustable retainer.. its only about 300$. they will prolly pull a tooth and then use the retainer to move that one tooth. whether they pull a tooth or not, though, if you want the tooth straight you will have to get some type of orthodontic device. but be patient-- it is worth it. And if you get it done no- you wont have to worry about it in later high school or college. also request permanent retainers on both top and bottom, then you wont have to mess with the removable kind.

im not exactly sure. u need to consult ur orthodontist. he/she should go thru what exactly will happen if u get braces and how they'll correct it.
