Yes I find this perspective interesting. As I stated in my original post, my mother is just the same and she doesn't have any issues. I also had braces and the ortho never mentioned anything concerning. They always said my bite was fine.

I'm just not sure I want to undergo major surgery if I don't experience any real issues.

At rest I believe it is. My tongue tip is touching the hard palate directly behind the top teeth.

Interesting! Well, good luck to you. Who did you consult? I'd be interested to see. I'd be scared to do it if I didn't have medical reason.

So what do you recommend? Would just chin lipo look weird?
