The lack of confidence to smile can have a huge impact on your life, and I can certainly appreciate your concerns. Without a full consultation its difficult to say what needs to be done. However, rest assured that Invisalign (although it has its limits) can striaghten very crooked teeth.

I hope this helps

Kindest regards

Hi Kerry

Many crowded cases have been treated successfully with invisalign - despite its limitations.
Upon assesment - your dentist should inform you what outcome to expect realistically with invisalign. If you feel that invisalign does not meet your expectations you could always consider lingual fixed fixed braces.

Warm Regards
