Hi. See normally upper front teeth are outwardly placed as compared to the lower front teeth when we close our mouth in proper occlusion or chewing position. But this condition is reversed in your case or some teeth as you say are in reverse condition. You can go for a fixed braces treatment once you are above 21 years of age. Consult an Orthodontist.
