If you have the full space of missing a first molar and are hoping to have orthodontic close it you are asking a lot, and while it could be done it will take a long time (maybe two years). The implant option is a very good one if you have the bine in the jaw to support it. think about this - it may be cheaper that the orthodontics, and easier.

What you want and what you need may be two different treatments. Moving those two teeth will take quite a while, and when finished, your maxillary wisdom tooth will need extraction since there will be no antagonist. If you have the time, money, and patience, almost anything is possible. Consult with an orthodontist regarding costs and decide what is the best course of care for your situation.

Is this possible to do, perhaps. Difficult, yes. Treatment will be both expensive and prolonged, possibly including temporary implants to bolster anchorage. Whether this is even possible to do will depend on the amount of bone that still exists in the first molar area. Consult with an Orthodontic specialist to determine viability of what you want compared to what is appropriate.
