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

View allMy lower jaw sticks out and I'm worried about it is this something that needs major surgery or can it be fixed with a minor procedure? What are my treatment options?
A protruding lower jaw, or prognathism, can be corrected through various treatments, ranging from minor procedures to major surgery, depending on the severity of the issue. Orthodontics like braces or appliances can address mild to moderate cases. More severe cases, where the jawbone itself is misaligned, typically require orthognathic surgery, also known as corrective jaw surgery, which involves repositioning the jawbones.

What's the average cost for teeth alignment options like regular braces, invisible braces, or surgery and which one would give the best results for my situation
The cost for teeth alignment options varies greatly based on the type of braces, the complexity of your case, and the location of the orthodontist. Traditional braces (metal or ceramic) typically cost between ‚Çπ30,000 and ‚Çπ80,000, while invisible aligners (like Invisalign) can range from ‚Çπ69,999 to ‚Çπ3,50,000 . Orthodontic surgery, if needed, can be significantly more expensive. The best option for you will depend on your specific needs and a consultation with an orthodontist

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
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
