Small Underbite problem?!

Small Underbite problem?

I have a small underbite, its not even 1 cm out (lower teeth/jaw)

I really dont want to go through sugery (IF ITS NECESSARY)

what other ways can i treat this?

Im going to make an appointment with the orthodontist soon

im 18

3 weeks ago
i also have TMJ which im guessing is from this underbite

hey am 17 and have an underbite mines is about 1 cm out

i am going through the surgery route

what am having performed is called a lefort 1 with geno
to move my top jaw forward and then reduce the size of my chin with geno not only will this correct my bite but leave me with a better profile

but you may be able to fix yours with just brace work

if you visit an ortho they can tell you there opinion if it is able to be done with braces alone or not

if not the only other way is surgery and brace work

if you had known about it from a little kid you could have get head gear but that wont work now your 18


hope this helps also you should visit archwired.com

its a really useful site and the fourm there is awesome many people have documented there journey you should read about it before completely saying no to surgery

ohhh i also have tmj my jaw constantly clicks and i am hoping through my surgery i will noo longer have this problem as my jaws will be correctly alligned
