My Chin is Off-center and I Have an Asymmetric Jaw As a Result,how Can I Get This Fixed?

knownallstar
I have become aware of the fact that my chin is skewed to the left and it seems to have dragged my jaw line and face along with it. I had retainers as a child and braces in middle school (I'm 20 years old now). It's been this way for quite some time. My teeth are perfectly aligned, but somehow, my jaws don't look that way. My bottom lip seems pulled to the left and doesn't match up with the top one and my smile seems slanted. I was wondering if this could be fixed dentally or by a minor surgery.
