Can braces close the extraction gaps in my teeth?

Q.
I have very large gaps in my mouth in various places because of several teeth i had extracted. Can braces remove these gaps or should I consider something like dental implants? What do you think? I haven’t managed to speak to my dentist yet.
A.
It is likely that dental implants will be needed.
