Like if I jut my jaw forward or pull it all the way back will they be able to tell? Or could they make a mistake if I have the wrong jaw position. Asking cause idk my "natural" jaw position so idk how to position it during the scan tbh. I'm hoping the scan providers could tell me but they're probably gonna be low IQ and not know wtf im babbling about
 
The way you position your head can actually influence the surgeon's approach. If you tuck your chin in the movement will be more aggressive.

There are some informal guidelines for it, you can find it somewhere on r/jawsurgery

But pretty much: Natural head position at the FHP (frankfurt horizontal plane)
so i could tuck my chin in and retract my jaw all the way back for maximum BSSO movement? JFL

how would i go about getting my le fort 1 area advanced as far as possible? what position would fraud that? giving myself a big underbite? what else?
