Hi, I've had an irregular jaw shift problem since I was born. I cannot pronounce the "ch" "sh" "tr" "dr" and similar sounds and the letters "j" "g" and "h" without sounding uncomprehendible and with a big wad of spit coming out. I really hate it. It makes me feel insecure, unconfident, I always get made fun of for it, and I just am plain sick of it.
Anyways, I think getting this problem fixed will make me more confident (because when I say something with those sounds, people can't understand me very well. When I say "she," my peers think I said "he."). I want to apply to medical school in about 4 years, and the thing I am most nervous about is that I will have to say something with one of those sounds, and it may be uncomfortable during my interviews).
I am 17 years old, and I am entering college in two weeks. I want to at least have some sort of surgery before hand. So what can I do to get it fixed, and please provide me with names of surgerys that realign the jaw. Thanks!!!!!!!
