Such a stark contrast. One is human, and the other is subhuman.
The top guy has a short posterior cranium and a long, forward-grown anterior cranium.
The bottom guy has a large posterior cranium and a short, flat anterior cranium.
Because the maxilla is attached to the base of the anterior neurocranium, the forwardness of the cranium determines the potential forwardness of the maxilla.
Although poor oral posture and mouth-breathing may prevent a maxilla from growing to its full potential, ideal posture during childhood cannot make the maxilla surpass its natural limit, which is limited by the cranium.
Using this data on human head dimensions—
Human head - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
—let’s say the bottom guy’s head is 20 cm (the average head length) long.
Let’s measure how recessed the subhuman is.
Relative to the top guy—
—the bottom guy’s maxilla is 35.9 mm behind and his chin is 43.3 mm behind.
Perhaps a solution is Monobloc frontofacial advancement—
—a BSSO to elongate his mandible, and a genioplasty to project his chin.
But! The harsh truth is, even Monobloc can’t save the subhuman.
According to this scientific study of 20 Monobloc patients—
Functional outcomes in monobloc advancement by distraction using the rigid external distractor device - PubMed
Monobloc distraction osteogenesis results in good aesthetic and functional outcomes. The relatively high rate of complications remains a concern, and further adaptations of technique are needed to reduce the risks of this procedure.
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
—the average Monobloc advancement is only 16.4 mm, and the biggest advancement out of the 20 patients is 22 mm. Way less than the 30+ mm that the recessed subhuman needs in order to ascend.
It truly never began for some unfortunate subhumans.
