Bottom braces

[Deleted member 267809]

I have a 6 and a half millimetre overbite and I’m planning on getting bottom braces to fix this but, I don’t know if this will give the same look to my jaw and mandible as when I’m jutting or will it just pull my teeth forward and not the actual jaw might be a bit of a dumb question but I don’t know the answer.

Bottom braces alone will mostly move your teeth, not your mandible. If your jaw itself is retruded, only growth modification appliances (like Twin Block) during adolescence, or surgical options after growth, can change the jaw position. Your teeth will align, but your profile might not look the same as when jutting.
