Protruding Teeth Correction with Invisalign?

May 16, 2009
Asked By:vivadiva in Washington DC

I have medium protruding upper teeth, which makes it hard to fully close the lips in a resting position. One ortho recommends extraction of four first bicuspids with ceramics, and another recommends widening the arch with Invisalign. Can Invisalign correct this without extraction? Thanks so much.
