Several ways: The most elegant, 21st century way to replace a missing tooth is with a titanium dental implant. You could also have a fixed partial denture (bridge) made, or you could have a removable tooth replacement made.

Dental implant crown: A dental implant and associated implant are the most conservative solution to your problem. It could be a straightforward placement or if there is insufficient bone and soft tissue, grafting might be required first. Either way, no other teeth are involved and you get a functional and esthetic tooth! Good luck and make your decision based on the doctor's skill, not price cause it's your smile!

Missing lateral: If there is adequate bone and the adjacent teeth are in sound condition the best way to replace that particular tooth would be placement of a dental implant followed by a porcelain crown. Good luck

DENTAL IMPLANT: There are a couple options to restore a missing front tooth. The cheapest is a flipper. Basically a one tooth removable denture that fills the gap. You may or may not be able to eat with it in place so first dates may be uneasy. The best by far that will not involve any other teeth and give you the best results is a dental implant. Don't look at cost. Look at investment.

Options, ask dentist: One option is a dental implant, advantages are no decay and don't bother adjacent teeth. This option depends on if you have enough bone to support the implant. You can also do a fixed partial denture/bridge. This is where you crown the teeth on either side of the space and have the fake tooth in between. You can also do a removable partial denture, snap on smile, or boomer bridge, and more.

Several options: A missing lateral can be replaced in many ways, depending on factors such as how large the gap is, the way you smile, your bite, remaining teeth, budget, etc. The gap could be filled with a porcelain tooth supported on an implant, this is on the high end of the cost scale. You could also fill the space with a bridge, which is in the medium range, or a removable partial denture on the low end.
