Hello! Sorry for the long

I've been heavily going back and forward, debating on going through with this surgery.

For context, I have a big overbite, my front teeth cave inwards which cover my entire lower teeth, hitting my  gums. It never really bothered me other than my bottom gums being irritated and inflamed, but I finally decided to go to the orthodontist. I did heavy research and honestly concluded my bite is worse than I thought and might need surgery.

1st time ever discussing my teeth with an orthodontist and she mentioned that my front teeth caving in was actually "masking how bad it is" and she suggested talking to a surgeon about it. She was very nice and even said she had to have it done and suggested Dr. Radulescu.

I left, scheduled a dentist appointment to get a cleaning done just so im prepared for braces/possible surgery. My dentist said she agreed with what the orthodontist said but said to be weary of the company I went to because she heard quite a few horror stories regarding them but was surprised how good this individual was. She gave me a different orthodontist for a second opinion so I went to them.

The tech there said the same thing and even mentioned i do have a bit of a narrow airway but obviously needed to wait for the doctors opinion. He did a 3D scan/a estimated before and after for invisalign and said it honestly wasnt that bad and could be fixed with invisalign but to talk to the same surgeon I was recommended just to be sure. (That was very reassuring)

The surgeon did say about how once they straighten my teeth I will look worse before surgery, but said how braces alone wont fix my bite and that I would need to do surgery. (He seems very knowledgeable and was very kind as well)

My friends say "its not even that bad" or how i look is perfect and now it has me wondering if its worth doing all of this if Im not having pain/too many issues. I am just very scared that I will end up hating how I look/leave with more issues and realize I didnt actually need it 🙃 did anyone have a similar bite to me and went through with this surgery? If so were you happy with the results?

Should I go through surgery?
