Possibly. Consult with a local orthodontist.

If the problem is dental in origin, tooth movement may solve your dental imbalance. If problem is skeletal, orthopedic force applied to the affected bones, possibly with surgical assistance, may be required. Asymmetric boney relationships can lead to significant facial asymmetry and disfunction over time. Please see qualified Orthodontic specialist for an informed opinion.
