Are gonions the only thing that determine jaw width?

[Deleted member 17429]

Do other things matter, like mandibular length, ramus length, etc?

As far as I’m educated, I think gonions are the only thing that matters for jaw width. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong.

For jawwidthcels such as ourselves, the jaw width can be enhanced with chewing gum that stresses the massetor muscles which then force the bones to increase in size.

It's the bigonial breadth and gonial angle that matter the most.

POWERFUL WHITEPILL: bruxism & ramus lengthening through alveolar remodeling (gonial angle correction)

Ima keep it short. The alveola is very malleable. Teeth can shift in it, both sideways and up/down. This is the core principle of orthodontics. Apllying pressure on molars will remodel the underlying alveola and subsequently the mandibular body in a way to support the tooth root, which...

As a native english speaker, what the fuck is the difference between the breadth and the width?

But if you have inward gonions you will look like a chipmunk ;_;
