So recently I have been told that my right nostril is being blocked by my septum and that may have led to me mouth breathing for a while now. I also have an overbite and some crowding on the lower teeth. I I just want to know if that has affected my face any and if anything can be done to improve my situation.

Dear Jay, See your surgeon for a follow up intra-nasal examination so that he/she can provide a proper diagnosis and if necessary treatment plan. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.
If you only have a very slight deviation and no nasal obstruction, then there is no medical necessity to perform the procedure. Best to leave well enough alone.
