Occasionally this can be treated with a removable device such as a biteplate. However, this requires good patient compliance. Your orthodontist will see if your situation requires a more complicated device. This cannot be determined without examining you and taking all necessary x-rays.

Braces are the only sure-fire way of correcting problem with your teeth that I know of. They're annoying, but it's worth it in the long run.

You can have surgery but that's too expensive and painful.

Just wear the braces, it only lasts from 1 - 3 years
