Is Invisalign the best brace to close a front tooth gap and move my crowded teeth?

Q.
hello Doctor Thorne,

I hope you can help. I am looking into finally getting some braces for my teeth, which have a very big gap between the front two teeth and then the rest of the top jaw (teeth I mean) are severely crowded. Obviously this doesn’t look at all attractive, so I am looking for the best treatment to close up the gap and spread out the other teeth (I guess that’s what would happen) Do you think that invisalign would be up to this job?
if so how long could you estimate it would take and how much would it cost?

thank you very much

A.
Hi
Depending on the size of the gap and how much crowding there is, Invisalign may be suitable. If it is more extensive you fixed braces would likely be quicker and more suitable – unfortunately it is impossible to give you a definite answer without seeing you. This is the same for costs and duration of treatment, though Invisalign may be between £3000-£5000 as a guide.
Good luck
Adam
