Is it true that when they’re preparing u for djs, braces make your bite worse
So I have an underbite it’s not too bad but I do need surgery to fix it and my orthodontist told me that when he’s going to prepare me he’ll either have to pull premolars out (which I REALLY don’t want my upper pallet is already narrow) and he said he’ll need to make my lower jaw go forward. I’m really scared I don’t wanna pull teeth out, he said I’ll have to consult with a surgeon first but dude I’m not pulling any premolars out and also idk if I’m prepared to look worse I’m already so self conscious😭😭
