Would braces give me flatter maxilla cuz i have overbite?

[youravgincel]

Got said that I have a well-developed forward maxilla, but I have overbite. Can braces affect the maxilla for the worse?

I mean if you have an overbite with good lower mandible than it should be fine, and if you don't do extractions.

Isnt an overbite already a sign of a bad mandible??

depends

no itll correct your bite so it will make ur profile more even if it isn't already. braces only straighten teeth too different appliances are used to correct and fix the bite.

depends on orthodont. if they are retarded they will push Ur maxillary back to align Ur teeth

if your ortho is using elastics yes it will. braces can only retract so its just gonna pull ur maxilla back to match your mandible
