"my front tooth is the only crooked tooth in my mouth soo i was wondering if i could put a brace on two teeth that would straighten one tooth instead of getting a whole mouth full of metal which is totaly unnecessary."
If you have even one tooth that needs to move, other teeth around that one will need to move too, just to make space. Even if the rest are perfectly straight- they all need to move for that one tooth to fit.
As far as putting the braces on only TWO teeth, here's the problem:
Let's say you did move those teeth BUT in the process of moving those, other teeth around them were pushed by the bone reconstructing for the other two. Even if the other teeth didn't need to push away to make space, a good orthodontist would put a bracket on each tooth to make sure they moved or didn't move. Whichever was necessary.
