Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The protruded upper teeth can be corrected with the help of braces, there is no other option but there are different types of braces. Metal, ceramic and lingual orthodontics, There is one new method or technique called invisalign. Consult a good orthodontist and take an opinion and proceed with the treatment.
The duration of the treatment can vary from 1 year to 2 years depending upon the protruted teeth.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
