Is it better to get implant treatment as soon as possible?

I have a problem with my upper right molar.

I definitely feel that my gums have weakened because when I chew hard things, I get the sensation that my teeth are pressing against my gums.

It feels like the teeth are sinking slightly into the gums.

I was recommended implants a few years ago, but putting the cost aside, it took quite a long time because I had to monitor the tooth for over three months after extraction and then for another three months after treatment.

Some time has passed since then, and while I think it would be better to get treatment eventually, I'm really conflicted because it isn't severe enough to significantly interfere with my daily life.

Is it better to receive treatment proactively as soon as possible, or can I just continue with my daily life if it doesn't significantly interfere with my daily routine?

I'm worried that going for treatment might just make things worse.
