So from what I've read braces don't do much, retainers stop your maxilla from growing further, and elastics mess with your alveolar ridges by pulling the top one back and the bottom one forward (For fixing an overbite), I read that this makes your philtrum longer+straighter and makes your nose look bigger...
How would an adult go about reversing the effects of elastics done (To correct overbite) as a teen? I know you can't really do much about having worn a retainer in the past (Besides facepulling, facemask, and Le Fort JFL) but what of elastics?
