I have a gap in my upper front teeth and went to see an orthodontist. They said braces alone might not fully fix it and suggested maxillofacial surgery could be an option. I really want a nice smile what would you recommend for my situation?

Maxillofacial surgery is an option for a gap in your front teeth if braces alone won’t fully address it. It depends on your specific jaw alignment. Consult with an orthodontist and maxillofacial surgeon to see if surgery is necessary.

I'm really worried because my canine tooth is really high, and I'm hesitant about getting braces. I'm concerned they might make me look out of place. Are there any other options that wouldn't affect my appearance as much? Also, how long does it usually take to correct a high canine tooth, and is there a quicker method available? Lastly, what can I expect in terms of the treatment cost?

Braces can fix mild jaw misalignment; severe cases may need orthognathic surgery—consult an orthodontist and oral surgeon.
