I'm a 29-year-old woman with protruding upper front teeth that I want to straighten and align with my lower teeth before my wedding next year. I'd prefer not to wear braces is surgery an option for fixing this? If so, what would the cost be and what risks should I consider? How noticeable would the results be after the procedure?

View allI have buck teeth or protruding upper teeth that make it hard to close my lips naturally, leading to mouth breathing, snoring, and bad breath. I don't want braces because they take too long and are painful. I've heard about smile treatment and jaw surgery can you give me an idea of the average cost for these options? I know prices vary by city and doctor, but a rough estimate would help me decide if I can afford it. I can only see doctors in Visakhapatnam or Hyderabad. Not self-treating, just trying to understand my options better. Attached a pic for reference though the clarity isn't great.
For correcting protruding teeth (also known as "buck teeth" or overbite), both "smile treatment" and jaw surgery are possible options, but they are not the same thing. Smile treatment typically refers to cosmetic dentistry, like veneers or orthodontics (braces), while jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) is a more invasive procedure to reshape the jaw itself. The cost for each will vary greatly based on the complexity of the case and the clinic. Braces, even clear aligners, are generally less expensive than jaw surgery.

My upper teeth completely cover my lower gums and now some of my lower front teeth are getting loose. One dentist said it's a skeletal issue and might need major surgery. Is there any way to fix this deep bite without surgery at my age? I'm really worried about my teeth getting worse
dentist opinion is advised.

Is it possible to fix a class 3 underbite with just braces at 25 years old without surgery in India? I've heard mixed opinions and want to know if braces alone can work for adults like me
