Implant /Braces

Hi , I had a braces treatment for twice , 1st time I had only for upper jaw without tooth extraction (even with one extra tooth ) at end I had a midline shift so I didn't had retainers . after 1 year I again had a braces treatment for second time with four tooth extraction two from upper 2 from lower but because for one extra tooth I had in upper jaw I was left with one tooth gap which was not predicted properly by doctors so she said she will close that gap by bridge I was not okay with that method so I stopped the treatment and had retainers to maintain the gap to prevent tooth shifting. It was almost 5 years now &I am planning for a permanent best solution I consulted 3-4 doctors some are recommending implants some are recommending braces they are saying I need to correct a bite for that I should have same tooth count in upper and lower jaw else I might get jaw problems in future I am confused because recommend me best and permanent solution. I attached x ray for reference

Pain in Front teeths

Hi Doctors, From the past week I am having some sensitivity on my front three lower right teeth, and also, there is some discomfort/mild pain continuously there. Now, the pain is not at the root or gums but somewhere between the center and lower third quarter of the teeth. I am using sensodyne toothpaste, which does help in sensitivity but not completely. Can you please suggest to me what would be causing the pain and what can be done to cure it.
