Just went to the dentist today because one of my front teeth chipped on the back side. He said it was due to my end to end bite causing my teeth to impact each other all the time. They suggested Invisalign and I was wondering if anyone knew how well they worked on correcting my type of problem.
Answer: Yes Invisalign can correct edge to edge bite.
Its probably a class lll occlusion. I see gaps on your lower teeth which when closed will help them tuck up under your upper teeth. Thats the easy answer to that question...

Answer: Invisalign can correct an edge to edge bite
Invisalign can correct an edge to edge bite. Closing the space both dental arches can help the process to get an ideal bite. The upper teeth appear that they could need some flaring to help also. The third thing that could be done is to do a slight amount of shaving of the lower teeth to make them slightly smaller if needed and the last thing, if still needed, could be to use rubber bands from the lower front (canines) to the upper molars, which will shift all of the teeth in a positive direction. The key is to this or any treatment is for the doctor to plan with the patient using the Clincheck so you can see the intended result before you start. This is one of the real keys to the magic of Invisalign.

Answer: Looks straightforward
It appears there is more space on the lower than the upper, As the lower spaces are closed the end to end bite will be resolved. It appears you have a Class I malocclusion so once the spaces are closed the bite should be good. Another factor is the edges of the uppers seem to be tucked in. As those edges are brought out towards the lips your bite will be further corrected. This is assuming the pictures you show are taken with the jaw in the proper position and you are not thrusting forward.
No doubt the chipping will continue if the problem is not addressed.
Another great advantage to Invisalign is that the moment you start you are now preventing any further damage to your enamel so Invisalign is the best choice.

Answer: Invisalign is able to treat the overjet of your occlusion
Both Invisalign and traditional braces are able to solve your problom. I see the crowding at the bottom , Tooth # 26 overlap the lateral so you might need some extra space at the bottom which can acquired by arch expansion. The final diagnosis is based on the space analysis or check the clinchek.
