How do I fix 8mm overbite/jet, crowding, and possibly a narrow palate to its naturally correct placement as an adult? (Photo)

Asked By:anon__asking in Toronto, Ontario, Canada

I want to fix my mouth, and am set up to do Invisalign to straighten my teeth. My dentist wants to do IPR, but I didn't like that idea because I don't want to compromise my natural tooth shape (which I like) for straightness. Really, I want my mouth, teeth and jaw to be in their correct spots. I don't want solutions that simply mimic a perfect mouth (taking out teeth, shaving teeth, etc). My overbite bothers me, and I want my face and mouth to look the way it would if it was right. How can I?
