My dentist said I have Class III malocclusion after checking my side profile and bite. Can braces alone fix this or will I need surgery? What are the risks of getting this surgery done in India? It's hard to find any personal stories or reviews from people who've had this procedure here.

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

My 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.
