i have unsightly teeth (bucked teeth) and they make me quite embarrassed and uncomfortable. i dont want to wear braces and was wondering if there was another solution, such as removal and impants? any information would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
Removing healthy teeth and placing implants would probably be a bit extreme. There are various brace systems
1. invisable braces - i.e invisalign or clearstep
2. braces with ceramic(white) brackets
3. etc
Of course it is very difficult to comment without looking at the teeth. Therfore I would advise you to seek a consultation to explore your treatment options in detail.
Here is a case of a patient with protrusive teeth that i treated with inman alligners. The case took 4 months to complete.

also you may find that removing the teeth still leaves you with too little space to make a nice pair of front teeth
