Can braces improve face a lot?

[134applesauce456]

I heard it improves face symmetry by realigning the jaw.
I also heard it makes face slimmer and gives forward growth

idk can anyone confirm? I am getting them in 2 weeks

Makes your lips look bigger while they’re in

that can be nice but is there any permanent face changes? or does it only affect teeth

Braces will have zero effect on the jaw.

I'm going to assume you are not doing any jaw surgery in the future, because you are going to have to get braces again.

Depends. If you have an overbite then the retarded dentists will pull back your maxilla making you look more recessed. But if you just have crooked teeth or crossbite you will be ok

I apparently have a cross bite and overbite, which is weird because in every other consult w other orthos they never said I had an overbite.

idk my ortho might not be the best bc hes super cheap

hes going to make me wear elastics n shit should I just not lol

He will make you recessed bro, get the fuck away from this dentist

No unless you use some kind of pulling device like elastics or some herbst appliance. Extractions do change the face significantly tho. Give you hollow cheeks. Many models get it done

My brother got braces and his face looked the exact same after

Braces had a lot of effect on my jaw wym

I guess it depends on how it moves the teeth

 

[rust gamer]

Braces worked for my gave me forward growth and a wide ass palate don't know if that's just genes tho

[rust gamer]

I had bands I wore them sometimes but not allways, I also had this thing called power chain or something

 

[recai iskender]

did you guys wear rubber bands

Only if your have a overbite

 

[slitchhh]

sorry bhai, did u have elastics ?

had elastics only on upper right last 3 teeths for like 2 months but bef elastics, normal braces fckd my jaw very very bad
Like braces pulled my lower teeth backwards and to fix that, i stopped wearing retainers after braces and started facepulling

Doesn’t it depend on your age as well, I wore my braces for 3.5 years from grade 6 , my side profile at that time looked like a football
maybe just simply growing up did it or smth

Major factor is tooth extractions , Never get your upper teeth extracted, I used to have buck teeth and an overbite, 4 teeth removed (2113/2113) did all the elastics and everything turned out fine

why do you think this is happening

thought the same until I tried it myself.
I know a lot of people who didn’t wear their retainers, and nothing happened.
For me, retainers were just a waste of money.

yes that’s what braces are for
