Hi, yes of course "buck teeth" can be corrected and the treatment is going to drastically improve your smile and facial aesthetics. All you have to do is to visit a qualified Orthodontist (braces specialist) who can discuss with you the various options available. These days there are a wide variety of appliances to choose from which include the traditional metal braces to the invisible lingual braces. Time taken to complete the treatment depends on the complexity of problem but usually it takes 12-18 months. Hope this helps, all the best.

Next Steps

Any type of dental abnormality can be corrected. We just need to evaluate the case clinically to assess its condition so that the right treatment options applicable in your case can be explained to you. These can range from orthodontic therapy (using braces or clear aligners) to even laminates or metal free Zirconia Crowns. Please consult a Cosmetic dentist for a more rational opinion after a clinical examination. Alternatively you can post a clinical picture on Practo for an online consultation with a specialist.
