could i benefit from lingual braces?

Hello Everyone-

New user here. I'm 20 years old and a college sophomore. I have always been self-conscious of my smile. According to some of the orthodontists on this site, I have a deep bite, some lower crowding, and a Class II malocclusion.

Do you think i could benefit from lingual braces, even with the bite issues? How would lingual braces correct these problems?

Here are some pics of my teeth/bite:

Hi mara - I'm no expert, but I've heard linguals can do everything normal braces do. You should get some consultations with orthodontists to find out what your options are. I would certainly recommend lingual braces if they can treat your case.
