Cutlery made us uglier and recessed.
This is the modern overbite where the upper teeth occlude in front of the lower teeth. It's what dentists aim for when they apply braces. But it's not natural.
When humans ate with our hands, clamping down on food and then tearing it,
the teeth used to be edge to edge like this.
When humans switched from using our hands to using cutlery, the modern overbite became the new normal. In reality, the overbite has shown that the lower jaw has become slightly more recessed. This is Charles Loring Brace IV. Father, Charles Loring Brace, corresponded with Charles Darwin about how cooked soft meals and chewing less caused jaws to become more recessed. Brake the force hunch was even more profound.
He was obsessed with ancient humanity and realised before about 1780, every skull he'd ever witnessed had an edgeto edge bite. His guess was that knives and forks themselves, as well as soft cooked food, minimised natural forward's growth of the jaws, causing the modern overbite. Didn't find definitive proof. But cutlery use in Europe started about 20 years before it did in America. He asked around looking for skulls that were buried during this 20-year gap. He found them in Rochester, New York. Of the 15 viable skulls, 10 of them had edge to edge bites. This was a slighter of proof. Only decades later in China did he prove his hypothesis. The Song Dynasty started using chopsticks between 960 AD and 1279 AD. The aristocracy and then moved down through the classes.
In the Shanghai Museum of Natural History, Brace IV found his definitive proof. A scholar who died during the Song Dynasty and was pickled in a vat ever since had a clear modern overbite. Brace IV analyzed more Chinese teeth and found that almost everyone from around the Song Dynasty up to the modern day had an overbite, except for some peasants who well into the 20th century still ate with their hands. That your alignment is not genetic it's entirely due to environmental factors.
When these sutures are gently pulled apart every day for the first 15 years of your life, new bone forms and that creates a forward grown face rather than a recessed face. Facial forces expand your palate.
I recommend you get some tough food like meat, take a large chunk, clamp it, then tear. It away to feel the amount of force that you use from your jaws to your hands all the way to your shoulders. No one does this anymore, and I believe it causes both upper and lower jaws to be far more recessed than they naturally should be.
