15M, i have been jutting 24/7 for the past 1 1/2 years due to my overbite and plan on getting braces and a palate expander(no extractions) soon. would it be too late for it to help with my gonial angle, ramus, and recessed chin? would it improve ccw rotation as well? i plan on getting damon braces but lmk if there are better alternatives for my goals.

you’re 15 and still growing, you have potential to grow still so keep nutritionmaxxing and maximise groth potential. Damon braces will help with overbite and provide upper jaw arch (won’t effectively give lateral expansion like palate expanded / mse does). Palate expanders won’t effectively fix chin recession but give wide smile. Also I assume your case is not bad so they won’t use Damon braces with palate expander either. (Although during growth, the mandible will follow the maxilla.) keep frauding by jutting twin.
