That extra tooth is known as a mesiodens. It needs to be removed. The spacing if only local can be done by a composite build up, or by indirect veneers. If there are occlusal problems throughout the mouth then Orthodontics (braces) is a better option.

The supernumerary (extra) tooth needs to be removed.
Alignment can be corrected using braces or smile designing or a combination of both
