madambutterfly89 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 i was wondering if anyone knows if braces will help my lower teeth to get back to midline. In photos my jaw looks like it's shifted to the left, I don't know if it's due to my jaw or my teeth. Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you.

mckinley21 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 What I think is that you should go with either jaw reduction or chin surgery and braces. At first I thought that my problem was in teeth and chin but when got a consultation with doc Oh from Regen Gangnam hospital, realized that the issue was in asymmetry in my jaw and proceeded one piece v-line as doc Oh suggested. Actually, he was 100% correct about my issue and I’m 100% satisfied that trusted him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisxcooking Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Best is to consult with your own orthodontist first then your oral surgeon. I had an underbite and lower jaw asymmetry as well. I tot braces could help but my orthodontist recommended me to go for surgery as braces might mask the issue but it will not fix jaw asymmetry. Your orthodontist will know best!

je-cullerton Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Please do not go to Regen for bone work. They made the elementary error of shaving past my nerve-line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
