Answer: Let's Talk Teeth Dear heysup5,Thank you for posting your question on Real Self. I will do my best to answer your question with the information given.I recommend scheduling a consultation with an orthodontist in your area. They will gather the necessary information (X-rays, photographs, diagnostic models) to provide you with treatment options that address your chief concerns. It appears Invisalign can be an option for you or at least a part of your treatment plan depending on how your teeth and jaws fit together. I hope that this helps and good luck!Best,Dr. Jenn

Answer: Buck teeth Depends on what you mean by "fix". Your front teeth are not really out to far. Fixing the crowding can be handled easily by invisalign. Looks more like your lower teeth and jaw are in too much. The only thing that will make your lower jaw larger at this point is surgery. However, you can have nice straight teeth and a nice smile using invisalign. Because there will remain some overjet between the upper and lower front teeth (overbite is technically how much they overlap vertically), you will have to be a little more committed to wearing your retainers when done, but that is easy to do.
