I had one removed 25 years ago cant be seen and no issues
Same here, I had the bottom, second from back removed about that long ago. I was around 21 and had no dental (or medical for that matter) insurance. It wasn't until a few years later when I did have insurance that a dentist mentioned an implant, but at that point, it was already too late because the gap had closed a bit. Anyhow, I don't know if I was just lucky, but you'd never know I was missing a tooth back there and it hasn't affected my bite, the way my other teeth look, etc. If your DD has the money, then an implant would be preferable, but even with dental insurance, it will still probably cost around $3K.
