Would invisalign/braces be able to fix this open bite? (photos)

Asked By:Kind9945 in Chesapeake, VA

about 20 years of thumb sucking and relapse after being unable to stop after braces when I was younger has lead me to this. I've completely stopped the habit but I'm terrified as all hell that this open bite is going to get worse even though I've stopped. Is this something only surgery can fix? Will it get worse if I don't treat it? and if I must, would braces or invisalign possibly be able to do it?
