Okay so,
i have mild overjet + an overbite

i just got a rhinoplasty so i cannot wear my prescribed Class 2 rubberbands w my damon braces

Because they pull lower jaw forward but UPPER JAW BACK

which created a flat profile and will change my nose positioning

so what do i ask for that only repositions my lower jaw (forwards)?

it has to be functional not cosmetic (I just had a cosmetic surgery and im 15)
Well why did u get a rhino with this in the first place and idk DJs if ur recession is bad enough

Well i got rhino because its something that i needed really bad and i know that i may not have the opportunity to get a skeletal surgery like djs until im maybe 18 due to my parents (they dont want me undergoing surgery unless its necessary)

I dont think my recession is bad enough to be refered to a djs (Im saying this because my ortho has only discussed my overbite and never had functional issues with my lower third)
