Answers:
You really need to put more details than this. Age, which teeth. I'm guessing you are missing your laterals.?.? They are the most common teeth to be missing aside form wisdom teeth. They are the ones right next to the middle ones.
Braces alone don't work very well for this. Ideally you want to have implants. The dentist may first want to do braces to open the gap to the right size (or not). Then the implants which are screw retained fake teeth will go in the spots and no one will ever tell the difference.Health Question & Answer

If you aren't missing any teeth on the lower arch braces probably wouldn't be a good solution. Bridges (commonly called "Maryland bridges") might be a solution. Implants to replace the missing teeth might be another possibility. You should be examined by a dentist and discuss the options with him/her.Health Question & Answer
