since i was 14, i heard clicking in my left jaw, moving it side to side makes it click, I have TMJ or TMD.
I went to a whateverologist and appearantly they said I can do surgery to fix that (covered by insurance). I told them im scared of surgery. now the thing is that I also have a reccesed chin, could i ask them to slightly move my chin a little forward?

from what I was told, they will have to brake my maxilla in half or the middle of my face and jaw to allign my face, cuz apparaently the way my face sits now is that my right side is basically unalliged, so my teeth are quite on one side.

im not sure if what i said makes sense, english is not my first language.
 
I have a similar problem but how old are you now?
