All of my teeth are perfectly lined up except from one bottom central incisor.He kinda moved inside after my wisdom teeth(even though they seem to be oriented normaly as every other tooth) came out so i was just wondering if there are any other methods besides using braces to fix this problem.

english is not my native language so i apologize if i explained badly

Generally orthodontics is the best way to deal with this and it doesn't necessarily have to be the big metal braces all around the teeth. There are devices that can be made that ONLY push that one tooth forward and it is something you can take in and out between meals and brushing. It usually takes a few months to correct the problem. In America, the device is commonly known as an "Active Hawley Appliance".
