How do I find a well trusted MARPE orthodontist and even a good jaw surgeon? I was looking to switch orthodontists to see if I can find one that will give me MARPE. When I went in for a consolation, he said he can give me it, but it might misalign my bite. Also, the orthodontic place only has 22 reviews with a 3.5 average. Also, looking at there oral surgeons, highest rating was like 3.3 with 300+ reviews. I think a lefort 2 would ascend my midface, as moving just my lower jaw will make my face look flat.

Also, current orthodontists wants me to wear class 2 rubber bands, but my incisors are tipping inwards a little, but the MARPE ortho said he can flare them back out and retract, which I assume would be little retraction. Main reason to switch would be because of MARPE, which I heard can help give a little cheek forward growth with time.

Any advice on what I should do?
