my bottom jaw is big and bits across to left would you be able to using me as an example case

Q. I am 28, I had braces in my early teens to straighten my teeth and with the looks to have surgery to realign my jaws, my bottom jaw is to big and bits across to the left and my top jaw too small. I didnt go ahead with this. I now work ina job role that is customer facing – my teeth are alot straighter but def not like when i had the braces removed plus I have 2 unsightly canine teeth 3rd in on each side. My jaw really affects my breathing and is extremely prominent and my teeth just make me never what to smile. This has also been an issue of bullying as I grew up. I now want to get this sorted but really dont know how to go about it – was wondering if you know anyone who would be interested in using me as an example case as i am aware treatment can be very costly – I can forward pictures etc for ref. thank you.

A. It sounds like you will need Orthognathic surgery that might qualify for some NHS treatment. Perhaps you should see your dentist and ask for a referral to your local oral-maxillo facial surgeon
