Hi there,

I was wondering if the facial profile (side view) of an adult (18 years old) changes after 2 years of braces to correct crooked teeth/a slight overbite.

Thank you.
 
Yes, slightly. The change in shape would alter, depending on if the orthodontist is moving the lower jaw forward or the upper teeth backward!
