thanks for your query i have gone through your query, radiographs are definitely needed to see the status of the bone, cleaning should be done before starting the treatment. if sufficient bone is not there then orthodontic treatment or clip treatment is not possible. even after gum surgery or grafting the prognosis will be poor. consult a orthodontist and take an opinion whether treatment can be done or not according to your bone condition. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
