7yr old with crossbite

Took DS (7) to dentist today who said he had a crossbite and will most likely need surgery and orthodontics when he's around 12 to correct it.

His 2 bottom middle teeth, his only adult teeth to date, do protrude over the top ones when he bites, and now I know about it, I can see that his bottom jaw does jut forward.

Has anyone any experience of this? Either regarding the surgery or cases where it was proposed early on but not actually required?
