Maybe. You may need bracrs or clear aligner trays. It really depends on how crooked it is. Other options may include a cosmetic crown or bonding. What has your dentist recommended?
Not necessarily. It all depends on your bite classification. Most of the time Invisalign can be an alternative option to braces.
Not necessarily. If your bite is efficient and you are pleased with the teeth cosmetically, then braces may not be needed.
Need braces is still a debated question in respect to many factors. If you have a crooked tooth that you want to be straight ,then braces of some form is the best answer. That could be clear aligners. The best treatment choice for your case would need to be evaluated by a dental professional which may include a orthodontist, a dentist that has specialty training in braces.
Get a consult with an orthodontist because there may be more that needs corrected than what you can see for your jaw function to be in balance. And if it is simple, Invisalign may be a good option. But the orthodontist can talk with you about options. Consults are usually done at no charge
