Hello,
We will have to clinically evaluate your condition depending on which treatment is planned .
But most of the cases braces will be attached to both the jaws .
As the movement of upper teeth may cause malocclusal disturbance .
So get a consultation first.

Hi, without proper clinical examination it's difficult to say whether only upper jaw treatment would work for you or not. Yes, there are certain cases where single arch treatment can work but not for everyone.
