It would probably have to be done at a young age, yeah, before the bones fuse, though maybe not necessarily as we learn more about how the genes work. My speculation is that this type of gene editing at a young age will eventually replace braces and surgery. It seems like a natural progression away from the current barbaric methods.

Ah, I guess I'm born in the wrong era. Sad. :(

GJ:
It will be interesting to see what the merger of quantum computing and AI over the coming five years produces, in general, but specifically in terms of jaw surgery and dentistry. We're finally on the cusp of technologies that work together in a positive feedback loop that can lead to quicker breakthroughs.
