Is there a non surgical alternative for class ii mandibular malocclusion?

Many times yes: Depends on the severity of the malocclusion. Sometimes complete correction requires surgery, sometimes extractions, sometimes just moving the teeth. Discuss this with an orthodontist and make sure you are both on the same page as to what you want to accomplish with your treatment. There are occasions where a compromised outcome is acceptable where you might be left as class 2 & line up the teeth.

Yes: Please understand that there are always options. However, there are always tradeoffs for the options, or lets just say it is a series of compromises.

Of course: Firstly, class ii refers to upper and lower molar relationships (no such thing as a mandibular ii). The overwhelming majority of class ii malocclusion's are treated without surgery. It is also perfectly acceptable to remove the upper jaw 1st bicuspids (premolars) and correct the anterior portion of the problem, leaving the molars in class ii. Just as healthy.

Yes, but: I agree with dr. Schleimer wholeheartedly; however, there are instances when a surgical correction may provide the desired correction--not necessarily better--but perhaps more in-line with your specific concerns. The key is that there are often more than option to explore prior to making an informed decision. Be your patient advocate.

Orthodontics: Your orthodontist may be able to address this. I would visit them first before surgury.

Depends: At 35, if lower jaw retrusive in relation to to other facial structures, it may have to be brought forward surgically to get all the parts to fit properly. This is why we like to see kids @ age 7 for 1st ortho check-up, so we can avoid this type of problem. If r leg 2" shorter than l leg, a l pedicure would not fix problem.
