Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

I would suggest you to get it examined by an Orthodontist, Take an OPG radiograph and suggest the treatment options with him, removable braces can be placed, other than this fixed treatment is another option, if you are having budget problem you can consult nearby dental college where the treatment can be carried out at reasonable prices.

Take care!
