How do I fix my bite?

[Lankycell]

Lately I’ve noticed when I bite down, my molars touch first and the front half doesn't touch.

Not like I can really see it (because it’s subtle) but it means this is happening:

Not that exaggerated but you get it


I think it’s from hard mewing or my outrageous thumb pulling back in 2023

edit: I didn’t have it before, I used to be normal until about a week ago


In conclusion:


What the heck am I supposed to do now

no its not that did nothing you just have a open bite talk to a orthodontist

Orthodontics or if you want to cope like me, jutting (and yes it works in my case, i've been doing it for 2-3 years and my bite has fixed itself)

Open bite
Braces are needed
Did you suck your thumb in adolescence?

Like just manually putting it in the right place

You’re probably right but I remember having a normal bite before, just recently I’ve noticed. I wasn’t a thumb sucker but it probably is open bite.

 

[Lankycell]

yes

Okay I’ll just try hitting children at playgrounds for fun
