Dear Practo user ,
I recommend visiting a nearby orthodontist for a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan. The prognosis and treatment approach can only be determined after a thorough assessment.

Facial aesthetics can depend on malocclusion and underlying bones. In your case the midline of face and jaws need to be evaluated for asymmetry. Lip competency also has to be evaluated in case incompetent, bite and retroclined or proclined teeth.
