Any chance the invisalign would work for me or should I just use the lingual braces

Q. I have consulted a dentist and I want to know if invisalign would work for me. The dentist said I have both for aesthetic and functional problems. A clinical examination revealed a type of dental malocclusion cl with the DDM. On the dental plane, the teeth has a median diastema of up to 7 mm and a strong proalveolie max. A man of diastemes distal incisors and proalveolie; on strong vertical gap. On a cephalo plane there is a maxillary proalveolie which is detected on a convex profile. I am trying to translate from french. I am 30years and have sucked my two middle fingers for as long as I can remember. Any chance the invisalign would work for me or should I just use the lingual braces.

A. I’m not sure what all this means as I don’t think it translates very well. However, as a general rule, if you have an open bite due to finger sucking then invisalign won’t work that well. Why not get a 2nd opinion from a specialist in orthodontics
