Could braces close the gap of 1 missing front top tooth?

Not ideal treatment: As an adult, the best replacement is a dental implant. It depends on the condition of the adjacent teeth and what your treatment objectives are. Discuss your desires with a local dentist who can actually examine you and treat you.
