I had 4 teeth extracted before for my orthodontic treatment 5 years ago when I was 16. Then I started notice the caved in teeth, narrow smile and prominent nasolabial lines. I was hoping to reverse this sunken look with braces so I went for damon.

Would damon braces be enough to help address the problems? (Photos attached)
