Can Invisalign Close my Open Bite? (photo)

I am 16 and had braces twice. I also had a pallet expander before my first set of braces. I developed an open bite due to thumb sucking and don't want to wear braces again, especially not in high school. I was hoping since it is pretty minor, if Invisalign could close my open bite?

Open bite

The main concern is not invisalign or braces but to find out why there is an open bite. Is it dental or bone related or a combination of both. When the records are taken your Dr will tell you the best course for your issues. Openbites are always difficult. The key to success is a proper plan by your orthodontist and you understanding what you must do and what you can expect
