See an Orthodontist: Yes, one tooth can be moved, but in most cases, your surrounding teeth will need to be moved also in order to accommodate the new alignment. Please see an orthodontist to discuss treatment options.

Yes: Depending on the angulation and position of the tilted tooth in relationship to the adjacent teeth and space available, there are different ways one tooth can be straightened. Your general dentist may be able to discuss possible options for a restorative procedure that could correct the problem or perhaps a better option would be to refer you to an orthodontist for evaluation.

Only: Only if there is room to move the tooth. If other teeth have slipped in behind it, they will also have to be straightened. Even without examining you I can virtually assure you that you don't just have one tooth out of position, that's just the tip of the iceberg. See a tooth straightening expert, an Orthodontic Specialist, for an evaluation.

Spring Retainers: often used to correct one crooked tooth. Most orthodontists offer free initial consultations. The orthodontist would evaluate your bite in general and if everything is functioning normally, then you may have a relatively easy treatment with spring retainers.
