Great job with the photos. Yes, Invisalign will close many of those gaps. But you will be left with some spaces that may require additional dentistry being done. Simple bonding and/or porcelain veneers may close the gaps, but you may still have a space or two the size of a full tooth. You are right, your arches are large and your teeth are on the smaller size. See an Invisalign provider and have your case worked up. The dentist should be able to use photographs and models and x-rays to determine what your ultimate solution should be. A no charge consultation should give you a great deal of information and answer most of your questions.
Invisalign is a great way to close spaces between teeth. If however, there is too much space that cannot be closed then adding bonding or veneers is a good way to close the spaces. You can have a clin-check made and worked-up in multiple ways before you start treatment. It is a 3-D animation that can show you what the possibilites are. If the space can be fully closed or not and an estimated lenght of treatment for the desired outcome. Make sure you correct any tongue thrusting habits if you have any prior to doing Treatment. That can cause relapse after treatment if it is not address ahead of time. Hope that helps! Good Luck!
