View allI've had braces before to fix my front teeth sticking out, but I'm still not happy with how they look. Would upper jaw surgery be an option for me? I'm a bit worried about whether it's necessary or what the process would be like.
Jaw surgery may be a corrective option if you have a jaw condition that braces alone can't fix. Usually, you also have braces on your teeth before surgery and while you recover after surgery until healing and alignment are complete

I have a short face and want to increase my midface length how much can double jaw surgery or Lefort surgery actually help with that? Are there limits to how much they can lengthen it, and what factors affect the results?
Double jaw or LeFort surgery can lengthen the midface slightly (4–6 mm typically), but results depend on bone anatomy, soft tissue tension, and surgeon expertise.
