How can underbite surgery change your face?

It's like magic: Surgery to make your jaws match each other combined with braces to make your teeth match each other will dramatically improve function, stability, and esthetics. The results can be quite dramatic. Your friends will say wow, and so will you. Talk with a qualified orthodontist and a qualified oral surgeon to learn all the good things available to you.

Profile: If you have underbite surgery it usually involves ( but not always) the doctor relocating your lower jaw back under your upper jaw. This will obviously cause your chin to go back towards the line of your forehead, nose, and lips.
