Orthodontics with braces can change some things. But we should understand that there is a difference between orthodontics and plastic surgery with braces. This is what is achieved after neat straightening and good occlusion, or after tooth extraction to reduce the number of teeth, it is impossible to further change the face shape. Plastic surgery can continue to be adjusted according to the needs of guests.

Q: What face shapes can correction change?

1, buck teeth: generally, the amount of teeth is greater than the amount of bone. Reducing the number of teeth and adduction after tooth extraction will improve to some extent, but it may not fully meet the requirements of patients, because excessive tooth extraction is impossible.

2, messy teeth: messy teeth, irregular teeth will generally cause local facial protrusion, and will return to normal after correction.

3, anti-jaw: also known as Tiandou, it generally appears that the chin is long and the upper teeth are concave. After orthodontic treatment, the occlusion is normal, the upper lip is full, and the chin is correspondingly improved, which is not so prominent.

There are other changes that are quite minor or negligible.

In short, psychological preparation should be made before orthodontic treatment with braces. Correction can only be improved, not perfect. Correcting teeth can only change the face shape in a limited way. Some cases of bone eruption, bone overgrowth and skeletal hypoplasia need orthognathic surgery to solve.
