Asked By:Jorgetorres in United Kingdom, GB

My name is Alberto I'm 30 years old and my left side jaw grew more than the right side, because of this my chin is off center. I can see it in pictures or when I smile (because of this I don't smile a lot unfortunately) I also have crooked teeth. A maxilofacial that I visited long time ago told me that I would need orthodontic treatment + jaw surgery, to correct the problem. I could afford braces treatment, but jaw surgery is quite expensive here in the UK and couldn't afford it
