Thanks a million!

I think the only options that my dentist or the oral surgeon will recommend is a bridge or implant- both of which I do not want. My sister had the same tooth pulled a few years back and the surrounding teeth closed in on it and there is a small gap- I'm hoping that is what will happen with me but I know we are all different and anything can happen.

I will bring up the nesbit and see what they say but I know for sure that there is no way I will get an implant and I'm on the fence about a bridge but leaning more towards "no" on the bridge, I just feel like I will end up having problems with the surrounding teeth since they are both healthy right now. I do like the idea of the nesbit - as to keep the space open and not have the teeth close in, so I will be quite pushy about it.

Bottom line here: that tooth needs to be out and there is no way I'm getting an implant.

Thanks for the advice!
