I'm a 25-year-old guy with an overbite and class 2 malocclusion is jaw surgery the only option for fixing this or are there safer alternatives? I'm a bit worried about the risks of surgery and wondering if braces or other treatments could work instead

While jaw surgery can be an option for correcting severe overbites and Class II malocclusion, it's not always the only solution. Braces and other orthodontic treatments can often be effective for milder cases, and in some situations, a combination of orthodontics and functional appliances (like headgear) might be used

View allI'm 25 and have buck teeth in my upper front two teeth is there any way to fix them without braces or veneers can surgery help with this
Yes, there are several ways to fix "buck teeth" (overjet) without braces or veneers, though surgery may be necessary in some cases. Cosmetic dentistry treatments like dental bonding can help camouflage the issue. Alternatively, invisible aligners or clear aligners can be used to gradually shift the teeth into a more desirable position. A dentist or orthodontist can assess your specific case and recommend the most suitable treatment option
