Should I get a surgery for my recessed jaw?
« on: September 10, 2018, 11:55:50 AM »
I'm 16 yo almost 17 and considering a surgery for my underdeveloped and recessed jaw. I breathed through my mouth most of the time in my childhood. My father has a good jaw and strong jawline, mother's normal. Does my jaw look so recessed that I should get a surgery for it?

Hard to tell just from this picture to conclude that you need jaw surgery. You could get a genioplasty if you want to move your chin forward and up to reduce some height. Right now it looks like what I've seen called negative chin. Granted it doesn't look terrible.

Well, you should consult with a maxfax surgeon and or ortho to determine if you have an 'open bite'. You look like you could have that but only X rays will tell you for sure.
Please. No PMs for private advice. Board issues only.

^^^^

you might require jaw surgery, but not for the reasons you've stated.

edit: hm maybe there is some underdevelopment, your face does seem pretty flat.

ps stop breathing through your mouth

You are that kind of person in my school who is ugly, no one talks to, has no friends and is an emo beta b*tch.

Hey man even the Emo kids have friends. I also don't think he meant any offense in what you said so you shouldn't insult the guy. I'd say you're sounding like a kid but then I read your age. 😩
