Is the recessing of the maxilla harmful or is the difference negligible. Also, I am not 100% sure I am recessed. My back bottom teeth simply don't each my top back teeth, but my front top and bottom can touch each other very normally. I think I have poor forward growth generally but I am not sure if that is the result of my teeth problem
What if they didn’t use rubber bands
these problems stem from
then how do you expect them to fix an over or underbite without exerting force in opposite directions?
For the first three problems, are these possible to bounce back from at 16 years old? There is no doubt I have had some kind of hormone deficiency in the past but I do believe my body has leveled itself, and I have experienced some forward growth, but I haven't fully "recovered". If it is possible, could you forward me to some good methods to sort of overcompensate for my malnutrition as malnutrition has most definitely been a problem in the past.
get rapid palatal expansion asap. pay as much money as u need. ur teeth are the most important, not only for your facial aesthetics, but for ur health.
If I just ask an orthodontist, would they give it to me? What do I do if they say no?
it costs a lot of money. ask them for it. yell at them that ur palatal sutures are loose and it can fucking make a difference. never take no for an answer. this is ur life. keep screaming at them until they listen.
Why does it cost so much money in particular? Just seems like another dental appliance.
It expands ur upper jaw and fixes ur maxilla which can help ur lower jaw
What if they literally just flat out refuse? If I just yell at them my parents will fucking kill me. We are rich so palate expanders arent a problem but I need an actual plan as these people know more about ts than me. Any aftermarket solutions if they were to say no?
Also, you down to rate me in DMs? you seem pretty knowledgeable.
No other solution. Either that or ur fucked.
He seems to be describing a deep bite. I don't think that necessarily means that the maxilla is downgrown
Or the maxilla can be overgrown and the mandible isn’t
I have one but mine is caused by my molars being too short, if they were taller I wouldn't have it since my skeletal base is class 1
I think this is my problem as well, how are you fixing it?
They’ll use elastics to pull ur teeth down and u will have normal bite+ taller ramus
elastic bands will ascend you if you have correct posture, mew and if your overbite isn't really that big. I had an overbite of 2mm but they fixed it and gave me more forward growth.
Good maxilla projection can cause an overbite I'm not completely sure tho
Braces, no extractions and elastics. I am going to a myofunctional orthodontist though, so I haven't gotten my treatment yet. I don't think i will need extractions, my palate is nearly 50mm
