I’m 22 and suffer from an underbite
Q. Hi, I’m 22 and suffer from an underbite and I am interested in getting treatment for it. Growing up I had braces, head braces etc The interent research I have done suggests that I have a grade 2/3 underbite. What is surgery likely to cost? What does it involve? What are the potential side effects?
A. You need to have a full orthodontic consultation to fully assess your options, if surgery is needed then sometimes it can be covered under the nhs sometimes it is private and prices vary a rough idea would be £8,000-10,000. Before and after the surgery you would need orthodontic treatment to align your teeth. Surgery now is very good you may need to book a wekks holiday as jaw will be sore but it is now a very popular and common procedure.
