(Concern) Should I get my crooked front teeth corrected?

When I was a teenager, I bumped into a friend while playing and my front tooth was knocked out of place. So, I’ve always been self-conscious about my front teeth and would cover my mouth with my hand when I smiled. The biggest problem is that even when I bite into an apple, the apple gets stuck between my crooked front teeth, making it impossible to bite into it with my front teeth.

I've always been worried about orthodontics, so I asked the dentist I visit regularly, and they told me to get an implant. At that time, I was in my 20s, so I was quite worried about getting a front tooth implant. Then, when I turned 30 and had children, I heard that orthodontically corrected teeth tend to shift again, so I postponed it again. Now that I've finished having children, I find myself approaching my 40s.

I'm hesitant about getting braces at 40. Is orthodontic treatment the best option for crooked front teeth?
