I think you need a crown lengthening procedure, a post core and proper crown preparation.
Next Steps
please consult with a prosthodontist.

Its better to take opinion from other doctor regarding cap. Their will be problem if they are giving you bridge, but in a single tooth it can given easily. In case if no retention their might be chance that they cut the tooth too small in that case they can do core buildup and again take impression and fabricate cap.
Next Steps
Talk to your dentist first, if they are unable then take second opinion. No need of braces for one tooth adjustment.

Hello,
You can opt for a crown lengthening procedure to increase the vertical height of the tooth and then go for the crown.
