My maxilla and chin are not recessed but my mouth is under-projected and its probably a combo lack of soft tissue in the mouth + set back alveolar process
And this is of course the case in both the maxillary and mandibular portion
Kind of an opposite problem that asians and blacks usually where they are usually overprojected and require ASO
I need something in reverse basically to project it forwards
And I dont need any lefort as my paransal is good so a lefort would make me look more recessed
And I dont need BSSO as my jaw doesnt need any advancement
The only real option ive found so far is a corticonomy where they cut the teeth and set them more forwards.
After the process a bone graft is done to help concrete the expansion of the teeth.
This procedure might also help with my tooth crowding.
For reference I've estimated that I likely need about a 5mm expansion of my mouth forwards for it to be ideally projected.
Is there any alternatives or is this my best bet?
