Braces after V-line Surgery? | Say Hello & Introduce Yourself | Forum

I personally would recommend getting braces first, just because braces straighten your teeth and depending on how bad the alignment is, they can also affect the appearance of your jaw. A large, "less v-line" jaw might actually be due to the way your teeth sit in a neutral position, but again, that depends a lot on your current dental anatomy. 

I've read that you can get v-line while having braces, but I'm not sure an orthodontist would feel comfortable adjusting your wires and brackets if you are in the recovery process.
