The best solution obviously is braces. If the protruding is minor, a litle enameloplasty (tooth shaping) will do. If the protrusion is not a lot, you could correct it by Porcelain Laminate Veneers. If it is more than a crown may solve your problem.
Consult with your dentist and discuss the options after a thorough dental examination.

However if you do not intend to put braces the tooth can be shaped for a crown and aligned with other teeth.
The approximate sessions for this work is 2 .
