Underbite Problem
I have a underbite problem ( class 3 malocclusion). I'm 23 years old male. I don't have any health issues regarding underbite.My facial appearance also good.
Is it treated compulsory?
If untreated, is there any future health complications?
Sugery is only option for this or can we fix it through braces treatment?
Please Help Me Doctors.

Hello...
The treatment varies from case to case, your treatment may not necessarily involve big surgeries.
Mild cases can be treated with braces.
But you shouldn’t waste more of your time because it is easy to treat malocclusion in growing patients.
After a particular age...surgery becomes our only option.
Next Steps
Consult an orthodontist for more information.
