Hi sir/madam,
I was informed by doctor that I have macroglossia. I got teeth gaps and teeth overjet. I am facing little breathing issues during night and not getting good sleep for long time. No problem with speech.
Is Invisalign treatment and mouth exercise will work to correct this problem?

Invisalign treatment will definitely help with the teeth gaps. Ortho treatment can also improve breathing issues as it changes the relationship of teeth and jaws to a favourable one.
However there are more elaborate treatment options for sleep apnoea which can be looked into if after Invisalign treatment your condition doesn't improve.
Next Steps
Consult an Orthodontist.
