I have an underbite problem. Precisely my upper jaw is slightly smaller than the lower jaw and I am currently preparing for nda. But 2 years back I had put on braces so now the teeth are neither behind nor ahead they just sit upon each other. So will it pose a problem in ssb medicals?

Ideally upper teeth have to be slightly ahead of the lower teeth in ideal bite. If they are not you can have issues in medical. Ask your dentist to try using some appliance to expand the upper jaw in transverse and saggital direction.
