Teeth straightening and correction
I was wondering if I could consult a dental to help me correct and straighten them. I was also wondering if instead of braces I could get the invisible guards. Thank you very much!

You could go for a consultation to choose the best option for you in terms of braces, be it conventional or the invisible aligners.
You can then decide as per costing which one to go for!

Hey there. I being an Orthodontist, specialize in improving smiles naturally by straightening the teeth.
I would suggest you first get a consultation from an Orthodontist in your area. The orthodontist will examine your face, your profile, your teeth, growth pattern of your jaws and accordingly let you know the treatment plan.
The orthodontist will let you know the various braces options, metal/ceramic/lingual/clear aligners(invisible braces), and give you the best suggestion as per your case.
This is because every case is not fit for invisible braces or lingual braces or tooth coloured braces.
I hope you get a clear picture for your dental treatment.
Next Steps
consult an orthodontist- braces specialist

You can absolutely straighten your teeth with help of clear aligners. You need to show it once to consultant along with some investigation which are some x rays. And we are good to proceed ahead. Thanks.
