Do I have bimaxillary protrusion based on my profile xrays?

egodoy11
I currently have braces to try and fix my class II malocclusion. My orthodontist reccomended to have upper premolar extracted to reduce protrusion of my upper front teeth though he said I did not have bimaxilslry protrusion, but to me it looks like I do. So I wanted to get more opinions. Also, I decided not to extract upper premolars but I’ll be 6 months into my treatment soon and I’m having second thoughts on my decision.
