If you had mouth protrusion (making your chin appear smaller than it actually is) prior to getting braces.

What I see is there are a lot of people here who want to correct their protrusion without surgery and ask questions. But few after results...

Oh so you're saying that the majority of people who want to correct it, and eventually end up doing it do not get much of a change with braces/extractions/things which aren't surgery?

I think what they're saying is it's not that people with protrusion don't get positive results, just that similar cases with post-treatment documentation are few and far between on here.

Eg... there are many more inquiries about it vs. how many have went through the non-surgery route to fix protrusion and bite.

Exactly! On the forum there are many questions about how to resolve a protrusion but few testimonials about the treatment itself and the results.
