Orthodontic treatment can help improve the alignment and appearance of a protruding jaw. Depending on the specific case, orthodontic treatment may involve a combination of braces, elastics, or other appliances to gradually move the teeth and jaws into a more harmonious position.
In some cases, orthodontic treatment alone may be sufficient to correct a protruding jaw. However, in more severe cases, orthodontic treatment may be combined with orthognathic surgery (jaw surgery) to achieve optimal results.
It is important to consult with an orthodontist who can evaluate your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan for your needs.
