Option one sounds best even if it is more. I think it will be less hassle and money down the road. Here's hoping for the best!

went with a combo of options. I had my regular dentist extract the tooth and put in bone replacement material so that an implant is still an option down the line after the extraction is healed and money is better. Worst comes to worst I still have the bridge option too this way. So for now I have a missing tooth that can only be seen if one is looking for it and I smile really big.
