Braces are possible in adults as well. However, bringing maxilla forward would be surgically done, i.e. Fracturing maxilla intentionally then grafting it at the new position by placing additional bone grafts. A rather long, risky and very painfull procedure. With braces you can shift mandibular teeth backwards and it will make maxilla appear forward. This would not be surgical, not risky at all, painless

Hello lybrate user, bringing the maxilla forward will be possible with a combination procedure of braces assited with surgery, which is corrective jaw surgery also known as orthognathic surgery. Alternative treatment options will be camouflage orthodontics where the mandibular teeth will be moved to a further backward position to mask the already backward placed maxilla. The whole treatment depends on how much the maxilla is placed back and to what extent. For further details you need to visit an orthodontist.
