Q. Hello, I have a slight underbite & I am 14. I am very, very self consisous about it & really want surgery to correct it. Would the orthodontis allow me to have it corrected at 14?
A. If your bite is how I imagine it to be, it is very unlikely that your Orthodontist would recommend surgery until you are at least 18-19 yeras old as the jaw continues to grow until that age.
