Braces: Generally fix the straightness of your teeth, not your jaw lines. Good luck.

Asymmetrical jaw: At 24 you have ceased growing, so jaw cannot be guided into better alignment with braces alone. You will probably need the services of 2 specialists, an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and an Orthodontist. They will work together to find the best treatment for you. Please see both specialists for initial examinations.
