Are there people who have experience with external resorption in their trajectory ?

Possibly there is external resorption on one of my front teeth so when I'll have braces again there is a big chance that tooth will not survive another time of braces :(

So I would have to have 2 surgeries and an implant... besides that it would cost a lot more money and a lot more time. So contemplating to continue the DJS.

Could use some advice here. I'll get the confirmation of the resorption in 2 weeks.

FYI this is my sideprofile with clear underbite.

The dentist suggested surgery 4 years ago but I declined. The reasoning was that when my mouth was closed it was not that notable, I did not have any breathing problems or pain. During that time I had other important things to fix in my life and was in a struggling relation.

Now I'm almost 30 and in a much better place so the time is right to start the procedure. Also I have noticed more muscle fatigue in my jaw. I think it will be 10 months of braces and then surgery and then 2-3 more months of braces. Also, they'll have to remove some teeth.

So my question for you guys: Are there any important questions that I should ask the surgeon this friday?

FYI this is my *normal* bite. This is not me forcing my teeth on each other.
