I have done a bit of research on this and understand that getting a surgery with the NHS for a class 3 underbite malocclusion is possible depending on functional problems and plan to talk to my orthodontist about it soon. During my checkup for my retainer (I have already has braces to hide my underbite as best as possible) I plan to talk about my functional problems which are as followed.

Tooth wear: All my incisors top arch and bottom arch have visible wear and this can obviously get worse (A sign of damage due to malocclusions) My top incisors are behind my lower incisors so they due to my underbite so they cause wear. (This is clearly a functional problem)

Back molars not touching: My 2nd molars do not touch so I will be using my over teeth more often which could signify that the tooth wear on incisors could get worse as-well as increased stress on teeth This is not meant to happen (Is this classed as a functional problem)

Side profile: I have a clear skeletal imbalance that is consistent with a class 3 underbite.

Airway trouble: I have always had trouble with breathing through my left nostril especially with the mad congestion it will get when I get a cold or allergy's act up (Could this problem just be me thinking about it to much or i need a septoplasty for this?

I think the ideal surgery to fix this all with The NHS would be a Bimax with CCW. Just wondering if anyone agrees and could tell me if any of the problems I have is complete Bs and I don't require a surgery I am still 16 1/4 years old and it may be to early to consider but my orthodontist have always brought up surgery up when my parents ask about my underbite and if it'll be fixed. when I previously had braces.

bimax would help for sure but youll prob have to wait a long time since they wont operate on people who are still growing unless its urgent and necesarry.

jfl if you think NHS is doing DJS for you

Even if they said to me that they will do it for me, I wouldn’t let them. They are butchers and will botch you.

You need to pay, and dont go to surgeons in the UK

Surely a side profile without a fucking underbite would look better and a front with more symetry would look better

They are butchers. Take my word for it, I’ve been in this surgery space for a lot longer than you. Trust me.

Even if they don’t botch you, your results will be underwhelming, so not worth the pain and tress of djs

yeah obviously? But just not with NHS surgeons lol.

Go to surgeons who care about aesthetics as much as they do function.
