Invisalign may be able to help protruding and gapped teeth

The aligners involved with Invisalign treatment can produce result that close gaps and retract front teeth to make them align with the rest of your upper teeth better. The alternative would be to have tooth colored brackets placed on your teeth, which can also give results you desire. Seek a consultation by a dental professional proficient in orthodontics to determine which option is best for you.

Gaps can be closed with Invisalign

Pulling teeth back into position works really well with Invisalign. Just remember that when you pull the upper teeth back,that the lower teeth will need to do the same thing to compensate.

Invisalign is a great tool for improving your smile. Invisalign moves your teeth (orthodontically) to fix problems like crowded teeth, protruding teeth, and closing gaps between teeth. Invisalign is safe, fast and effective as long as you commit to wearing the Invisalign trays.
