Will invisalign address my overbite?

Q. I have an overbite in my teeth. My top teeth are about 9.5 mm out from my bottom teeth when i bite. Is invisalign an option for me or is there too much movement needed, I have small gaps in my teeth and so teeth could move back. Please email me asap. Regards

A. Hi many thanks for your enquiry, the invisalign would close the gaps but i do not feel would decrease the overbite to any degree. to decrease this overbite it may be better to consider fixed braces. hope this is helpful.
