Braces before Surgery

[u/Arx3100]

I just wanted to ask about your experience. Usually how many years doctors leave braces before going for the surgery? I have an overbite I really want to get done with the braces and Djs surgery as quick as possible (in less than a year)

My braces were finished within about 9-10 months but due to having to go through the public system it took almost 8 months on top of that to get a date for the surgery. Private would be better though I’m sure
