My mouth looks pushed outward, self conscious about this. Braces or surgery? (photos)

I would strongly suggest that you consider utilizing a DNA Appliance to orthopedically grow your maxilla wider.  As you widen the maxilla you can round the arck creating a wider smile and less protrusion.  It will also allow your lower jaw to widen and give an improved profile without surgery.   The DNA Appliance gradually grows your maxilla but is worn only 12-14 hours including overnight and some during the day so you do not wear brace or even the appliance in public.This will also improve your nasopharyngeal airway, help prevent future snoring and sleep apnea, headaches, migraines and TMJ disorders.Obviously, there is only a single photo but it looks like you have a forward head posture that is usually an airway issue.  More information would be available to who ever actually treats you. I would advise avoiding treatment that involves extracting bicuspids.Ira L Shapira DDSDiplomat, American Academy of Pain ManagementDiplomate, American Board of Dental Sleep MedicineRegent and Fellow, International College of CranioMandibular Orthopedics (ICCMO)Chair, American Alliance of TMD OrganizationsThinkBetterLife.com
