Can extraction orthodontics cause sunken facial profile? (Photo)

Asked By:vivian28 in Myanmar

I got brace with 4 teeth extraction (4/5 & 5/5) last month. Now I am with ceramic braces. I am worried if I'll get sunken and flat face after my braces are off. Can there be any long-term adverse condition and effect on my facial profile?
