I am going through orthodontics treatment and my orthodontist didn't say I needed jaw surgery but had highlighted a number of issues and said she would write me a referral to a jaw surgeon (I can never remember the technical name). I always knew I had a small face. My dad had cosmetic jaw surgery for a severe overbite and my brother has a severe overbite. Jaw surgery would probably be life-changing for him.
Until getting braces I have never considered jaw surgery but it feels like it's slowly become such a big goal for me. I sometimes obsess over my flaws though... I feel like from the front, my mouth is ill-formed and my face needs to be "pushed out."
I'm just looking for some opinions on whether you think I could benefit from this? My concern started as cosmetic but now I'm thinking many of my sleep and TMJ issues could be addressed as well.
Edit:* also of note, I had a septoplasty covered thru the NHS as a teenager and unfortunately it did not address my 90% deviated septum although did shave a bump down.
