Yes dental braces can definitely solve ur problem..there is no upper age limit for braces .u can still get braces done and get ur teeth aligned provided u have sufficient bone support..
Regarding type of braces u can select according to ur life style and financial back up...if u are working person and worried abt giving a smile during braces treatment u can opt for ceramic braces or if u want it to be completely invisible u can go for aligners.
The cost varies..metal wil be the cheapest and the aligners wil be the costliest..
Next Steps
Kindly meet ur dentist so that he can guide u to the orthodontist and u may have to take few X-rays to confirm ur bone support if the doctor advises..
