Can Getting Braces When You Have An Overbite Change The Way Your Chin Is?

Well my chin is not that long & i like it that way but i have a kind of overbite
and im going to get braces tomorrow & from what ive seen the rubber bands are going to push the bottom teeth foward to algn with the upper teeth. I’ve tried it & my chin looks pointer & narrow.
And i don’t like it. Well braces really do that & change my chin.

    braces only change your teeth position they wont affect your chin.

    It will help your teeth & straighten them, but it won’t change the way your chin looks.

    it won’t really move your chin, it will just make it so you don’t have an overbite anymore. depending on how bad your overbite is, i’m sure the change wont be too bad anyways. don’t worry about it, you’ll have a perfect smile afterwards :)
    goodluck!
