My jaw and bottom row of teeth are tilted down to the left and my bottom row of teeth naturally lines up a little to the left of my top teeth. What causes this and what can I do?

Looks like you have a crossbite; go and check an orthodontist, see if braces are enough to fix, if not you might need surgery. if you do get braces, do not remove any fucking teeth. None.

Is your left eye also lower than the right one?

Can invisalign affect your jaw?

Some dentist websites said it can, I think if the assymetry isn't skeletal then invisalign can affect it, but I have crooked teeth anyawys so invisalign will at least be helpful for that
 
go to safi

have you thought about surgery or implants?

One thing i notice tho is that my masseters are also weaker on the strogner side. I think chewing on one side caused this, and I found this reddit thread from a gay dude who supposedly fixed his asssymetry by chewing. Honestly best bet is to just ask an orthodontist
 
same as you but in my case it was done, due to assymetrical molar height

Is your assymetry just that one side of your jaw is bigger or is it actually canted?

Nah it's canted, I was thinking that u could hide it tho with chewing

the thing is tho if the jaw is canted I don't think the muscles are going to be symmetrical meaning the muscle will be lower on the lower part of the jaw and vice versa which means that developing those muscles can increase asymmetry theoretically

Yeah also have you looked into surgery at all. If the teeth are canted because the jaw I think it's better to treat the root of the problem

Btw you should look into this.


It might be a dislocated TMJ that causes your jaw to be canted. If so that's good news I think since that's not too hard to fix

Btw when you feel your jaw is it that one side is just lower or is it that the ramus is tilted (on both sides in the same direction) which causes the tilted jaw?

An entire side is lower like chin ramus everything

I'm saying feel what direction each ramus is going in. If they are both going to the right or left it is possible your joint isn't in the right position

Put a finger in front of each ear and feel the joint that moves when your jaw opens. Try to see if they are level

Also ngl I think the assymetry wont even matter that much if both sides of your jaw are above average
 

Yo look at this this dude had a canted jaw corrected by orthodontics

Dont get invisalign. Had it, it fixed my upper row, but lower row still not ideal, surgery is the only option, when it comes to lower row

I gotta wait and see what it is but I feel my jaw joints when I open my jaw and the right one is like half a finger higher than the left so I think the joint might be dislocated or something

Do you have an overbite? Invisalign/braces cant fix skeletal assymetries if ur done growing
 
Sleep on the stronger side.

Also, learn how to use the search function.
 
Jaw angle implants or maybe modified bimax. Not much else you can do.
