The permanent tooth that is supposed to erupt is locked inside the bone. similarly his other teeth also need to pulled out . in order to speed up the process we should start his braces treatment .

A simple 2 by 4 bracket system is enough at this stage to pull the particular tooth out . that means only braces for front 4 and back 2 teeth in the upper arch

The permanent tooth is present inside the bone but not erupting, most likely due to impaction or improper position, possibly along with space limitation.
Next Steps
Since it has already been 3 years after milk tooth fall, early intervention is recommended to avoid future alignment issues.
