Lower Incisor Extraction Followed by Braces Left Me with an Overjet. Can This Be Fixed?

J Madison
As an adult I recently had braces. I had crowding in my lower teeth so prior to braces I had one my lower incisors removed. Now, post braces, my teeth are perfect on the top. On the bottom the incisors go straight across instead of rounding the same way the the top row does (because I only have three incisors). This has left me with a 4mm overjet. Can this overjet be fixed for a person who is missing a lower incisor?
