overSimple.
You see if your lower jaw is recessed which is way easier to tell.
If your lower jaw is recessed and your bite matches, then you know your maxilla is recessed. If you have an underbite then you know your maxilla is recessed. But obviously camouflage orthodontics is a thing, so if your lower jaw is perfect and your bite matches, you can tell if your maxilla is recessed because there will be a vertical line in your midface behind your nose as opposed to a diagonal as seen in the photo below.

I have an overbite, and my chin is hella recessed when I don't jut my teeth but my chin is pretty good when I do jut it. So I have a recessed maxilla?Simple.

Your chin is just small or you have an overbite (recessed mandible).I have an overbite, and my chin is hella recessed when I don't jut my teeth but my chin is pretty good when I do jut it. So I have a recessed maxilla?
My chin is pretty wide. What is this recessed mandible?Your chin is just small or you have an overbite (recessed mandible).
The focus here is on projection. You may have a wide chin but your mandible length might be low so your chin doesn't project much forward. Recessed mandible just means it's behind your maxilla. If your bite is good and you've never had braces, then your jaws are probably aligned and your chin is just small. If you have an overbite then your mandible could be recessed.My chin is pretty wide. What is this recessed mandible?
Oh yeah I forgot to explain how to tell the status of ur maxilla if u have an overbite... simple, the way jaws work, theres basically ~0% chance that ur maxilla is PERFECT and only ur lower jaw grew incorrectly. So yeah ur maxilla is somewhat recessed.I have an overbite, and my chin is hella recessed when I don't jut my teeth but my chin is pretty good when I do jut it. So I have a recessed maxilla?
Yeah I have a recessed maxilla then. Do you know how to fix this or is surgery required?if you have a weak under eye, it's recessed
Can your upper maxilla be recessed while lower maxilla has reasonable forward growth?Simple.

I dont get what this even means. I mean u can have upper teeth and alveolar bone that protrudes too far away from the boney part of the maxilla. But if u mean something else i cant say that ive ever heard of that and i cant picture itCan your upper maxilla be recessed while lower maxilla has reasonable forward growth?
I think have a recessed maxilla and lower jaw (my bite lines up perfectly, but I have that line near my mouth area, and my lower jaw doesn't come out too far despite having a decent gonial angle).Simple.
