Idk what’s going on fr. i’m getting braces soon, can’t ask questions cause my next appointment is the day they’re putting them on. can’t call them either cause i’m 14 and my parents won’t say sh. they just said "normal braces with elastics" and that’s it.

i think i have an overbite but i’m not even sure. could be just a recessed chin.
my lower jaw looks back. mouth looks weak from the side.
i’m praying the braces help with something.

but will they actually do anything for my chin?
will elastics fix overbite and make the jaw come forward even a little?
or am i just wasting time waiting for a miracle that’s never coming?

someone who’s been through this explain what braces can actually do.
do they help facial aesthetics or is it all cope unless you get surgery?
 
Not sure getting braces and a palate expander in December should definitely fix overbite not sure about ressesed chin
