Question 1

Can a quad helix expander actually change my facial structure at 23 and is it possible to get it done without surgery does it really work

Accepted Answer

Quad helix may slightly influence jaw position in young adults, but significant facial change is unlikely without surgery.

Question 2

My lower jaw sticks out and it's really bothering me. Are there any ways to fix this without getting surgery? I'm worried about how it looks and feels

Accepted Answer

prognathism may be corrected with orthodontics alone, but this isn't the norm. Braces can move teeth, but they can't move your facial bones. So, if skeletal abnormalities are moderate or severe, then you'll likely need surgery as part of your treatment

Question 3

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

Accepted Answer

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

for P/E dental specialist opinion is advised to the patient.
