Will braces mess up my maxilla

[ficann]

I have a slight overbite and braces on, though i heard when you have your rubber bands at the end of your braces it basically pulls your UPPER jaw backwards or does it push your LOWER jaw foward?

mandible is one solid bone so its always easier (and cheaper to perform) to recess the maxilla backwards to match it, which is what orthodontics people tend to do (sometimes by extracting maxillial teeth first).
