Should I get any orthodontic intervention? My dentist wants me to get elastics on my braces but I’ve refused because I heard it recesses you

elastics will not recess you, stop listening to fearmongering

pulls the teeth inwards, so they can align, which also causes them to recess in the process because they're being pulled back. mark as solution

Should I get any palate expanders? And should I get herbst to align my teeth and bring my jaw forward without recession, since I saw that treatment is good for ascension

JFL at your iq nigga. there are dozens of types of elastics strategies that orthos use, reputable ones (as OP states he goes to) don’t use elastics patterns that retract the upper teeth to fix overbites nowadays. In fact, they tend to use patterns that bring the lower teeth forward. Even if they were to use an upper teeth retraction method (which is not likely) it would have zero effect on your bones. stop fearmongering with your tiktok knowledge

There’s no proven evidence. The braces in teen years will recess your maxilla
