बढ़ती उम्र के साथ हमारे चेहरे का आकार भी बदलने लगता है। गर्दन के आसपास चर्बी बढ़ने लगती है, त्वचा ढीली होने लगती है और जबड़े की मांसपेशियां सिकुड़ने लगती हैं। इसका असर आपकी जॉलाइन पर पड़ता है और वह कम डिफाइंड नज़र आती है।

It doesn't work that way. Initial trauma might have distorted. But gradual forces made it happen so. So it will be better for you to go to a dental surgeon nearby. Oral and maxillofacial pathologist or surgeon might help you particularly with your situation. Don't need to worry at all. Don't forget to mention if my advice is helpful.

Hello Lybrate user. The jaw may be aligned skeletally or dentally. The treatment plan including orthodontic braces will depend on the malocclusions you have. But the treatment procedure usually takes time from one year to one and half years. Take an orthopantamogram and consult me for further details. Thank you.

Hello lybrate-user. You are in a growing period now. So not to worry, but make sure you have a habit of biting equally from both the sides. If you do this due to some trouble in tooth kindly get it corrected. Get an opg done to clear where it's not any bony issue. Kindly send pictures for confirming diagnosis.
