I have an overbite and a recessed chin. Because I also have a narrow palate, Damon braces are my first consideration. The issue however is that I have a long chin and don’t know if fixing my overbite would even be worth it.I also have a wide jaw, and was wondering if expanding my palate as much as these braces would be capable of would make my face wider. Judging from this picture alone, Wouldyou say my overbite is severe? And would Damon braces widen my face, not just my palate?
