Guest guest Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 --- Hi, My name is Pamela. My lower jaw goes to the right side of my face. I was in braces for 4 years when I was 12. I'm 25 now. My teeth are straight as well, but my bite is completely off. I was told that the reason why my lower jaw goes to the right is because I have an activley growing left condyle. While my right side has stopped growing. I was told the only way to correct this would be orthognathic surgery. I'm am having my surgery done Dec. 20th. If you have any questions feel free to email me.
