Why can’t doctors just perform jaw surgery to move and align teeth quickly then let it heal, as opposed to people having to get braces or Invisalign?

Edit: Did not expect this to get so many responses. I’m currently several months into Invisalign so have been super fascinated by teeth stuff and was just curious if there was a surgical way to do it, even if it meant way more money, time, and risk. Thank you to everyone who answered!

Jaw surgery is wildly painful. Like way more than you think. Aligners are unconfortable at best compared to it. Ive had both and would wear invisalign for the rest of my life before another jaw procedure.
