So I want to do some sort of jaw surgery, to slightly bring forward my jaw + swing it up somehow because it’s downswung (lefort 3 would be ideal because my upper maxilla is recessed, but I’m not sure if it’s even an option) but I know fine well that if I were to go as I am right now I would get dog-maxed so hard.

I have biomaxillary protrusion (don’t know if it’s genetic, or improper dento-facial development; I sucked pacificers until I was 5 years old rip, so that probably flared my teeth forward, but I noticed my grandmother also has it, so I prob inherited it from her) now it’s not severe, but if I want to reach the highest potential aesthetic result, I need to find a way to push that area back.

I’ve heard that a common way to fix it is to do extractions, which I really don’t want to do. I know that extractions practically make your face cave in, and although my mom let me suck a pacifier, she also breastfed me, so my teeth are pretty straight and never needed dental work 🙏why mess with them now??

Are there any other options to fix gorilla mouth? Can Invisalign help? I also have an issue with my occlusion plane; it’s tilted forward which is disgusting. I have quite a good smile, get compliments on it often, about 8 teeth, still have buccal corridors or however they’re called, so Invisalign can help with that as well- at least so I’ve heard.

I don’t think pallet expansion would be necessary, as I just need a slight widening of the pallet, and from what I’ve seen, pallet expansion gorilla-max’s people by widening the mouth etc

Step 1= fix biomaxillary protrusion (pulling the mouth area back somehow, which would initially make me look worse, as my biomaxillary protrusion sort of frauds forward growth, hides how recessed I am)
Step 2= bring the lower 3rd forward + ccw, fixing the downward tilt of my teeth (occlusion plane) + jaw, and if possible to do bring forward + upward the lefort 3 area, if not I can just get a midface implant later
Step 3= fix my giga-long Phil trim by getting a lip lift. This will have a major impact on my face I believe, as my main flaw is long midface. I want to flatten the mouth area (fix biomaxillary protrusion) first though, because idk it seems like a bad idea to do a lip lift on an already 'bulky' philtrum.

Please help me escape from Whooville bros 🙏

No photos and you already wrote your own plan... Graycel...


Take a pictures: fromt, 3/4 and side according to the guide in that thread and then we can talk better

Otherwise ask a dentist for help, i think you are not that bad since you are getting compliments

Your thread is probably just autistic ramblings and braces would fix those teeth

Yeah man sorry, I had to let my autism out somewhere 😂

I know that without photos it’s really hard to help, but I hope you can understand why I am not about to post my face on here…

So braces don’t totally mess up your face then?

possible


that's your answer, no/not enough breastfeeding = non strengthened tongue that can't hold the palate thus the maxilla and guide its growth - weak tongue makes you suck your thumb/pacifiers

useless
I hope it’s possible.

Yeah, my face is sort of a mixed bag. Using pacifier probably got me used to having my mouth open + soft diet and bad general body posture growing up led to bad facial development. My teeth are good though and I was breastfed.

Why is a lip lift useless?
 
i said not enough



the osteotomy will fix that ratio lol
Yeah, how long should babies be breastfed for? I want to have kids one day but I don’t know how I will convince my wife to breastfeed until they’re like 5 years old 😂

Oh that’s good, so I won’t need to get lip lift then. Anyways, it would be after the jaw surgery so I’d be able to review my face after and see if it would be necessary.
