I've been struggling with TMJ, bruxism and asymmetries related to it. My tongue doesn't properly fit in my top palate, I can see it's V shaped instead of U shaped like it should and my teeth are a bit crowded. I can also clearly see my top maxila is recessed, I need support in the middle third and some chin projection. I'm sure I need the expander and I'm also sure that it will fix the problems I mentioned. Today I went to the maxilofacial and the woman there dismissed me, said I needed my wisdom teeth removed(it scares me due to bone reabsorption but I'm not sure if it'll affect me) and started complaining about me knowing basic human anatomy. I have decent bone mass but lack projection due to that recession(she also said bone recession doesn't exist which is crazy) I just want to feel a tiny bit better with myself. So I need help (I'm 19)
