some people's jaw never stops growing, or way too late. In this case surgery is the only way to go. Hope you don't have it. If so, and it is not too serious yet, go see a doc ASAP. ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Hi, For most people the jaw stops growing in the teen years. If you have an issue with your jaw development (either too much or too little) you need to see an oral surgeon. You can start with your dentist for a referral but if there is a problem an oral surgeon is the way to go (preferably a board certified oral/maxillofacial surgeon - as they specialize in the bones of the jaw/skull). I had to contact an oral surgeon for a jaw related problem. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any specific questions. Good luck.
