Doctor, im 18 year old male. I am having my lower jaw forward than my upper jaw which is so embarasing. Is there any way to decrease it without surgery? And finally   "How much does orthognatic surgery cost"? Thanks in advance

Lower jaw growing more than the upper jaw can be corrected by certain appliances if you have consulted an Orthodontist during growth period. As you are already only option is to correct by orthognathic surgery. However if it is very minimal, it can be camouflaged by extracting only in lower arch. Orthognathic case would cost around 1 Lakh if done in a private clinic.
Next Steps
consult an Orthodontist
