Clear aligners straightens teeth using a series of nearly invisible, removable aligners that are customized specifically according to your teeth size and shape.

Hi, usually the treatment takes much shorter if it's done at a early age. it's going to take longer then usual in your case. you have options considering your academic and professional commitments. with a little difference in treatment duration, you can go for either
normal braces
lingual braces
Invisalign/clear path etc

or you can even meet a prosthetic dentist and try camouflage with no lengthy Ortho treatments
